Hi JMC and all with interests in the Hull orphanage/s.
JMC I  found the SS Sea Horse, she's included  in a book "A ships in Focus Fleet History' compiled by Arthur Credland (Curator of Hull Town Docks Museum) and Richard Greenwood. No photo unfortunately, but I copied the details for you:
Iron schooner-rigged steamer. O.N. 56135  Launched 1867 by Tod & McGregor, Glasgow, 60HP. 1868 Registered in the ownership of the Countess of Cardigan, Deane Park, Northamptonshire as SEA HORSE. 1873 sold to Sir Henry Edwards, Ashbourne, Derbyshire. 28/3/1881 Registered in the ownership of Walter S Bailey, Hull. 1883 sold to Prince di Sirignano, Parigi, Italy and renamed RONDINE. 1892 Omitted from Lloyds Register of yachts.
Like everyone hoping to get more info on the orphanage/s when the archives are opened. Regards KiwiJane

Further to what has been said above regarding the opening of the new site.

I drove by the site near what I remember as Charlotte Street Mews (I don't get up there often) and it looks as though the building is still a long way from completion. Then the internal fitting out will have to be done not to mention the records being moved.

I know these things come together very quickly but I can't see it being in the near future.

cheers

I have just found a copy of a postcard that I have of the General Orphanage and Asylum...I had forgotten about it and came across tonight......it is subject to copyright so I can't post it here but if anyone would like to send me a P.M. I will happily email it to them...It does have a faint watermark but it doesn't detract from the postcard.
