Belmont Institution, West Derby 1950's
« on: Thursday 07 August 08 01:14 BST (UK) »
Hello everyone

I have 2 ancestors that died in the Belmont Institution, Belmont, West Derby during the 1950's

Can anyone tell me where they would have been buried please as I am not familiar with Cemeteries in this area.

Kindest regards
Kristina Cameron

A bit of background - the Belmont Road Institution became Newsham General Hospital around 1950 http://www.mersey-gateway.org/server.php?show=ConNarrative.182&chapterId=759

Hi Christina, my Gt. Grandad died in Belmont Road Hospital 1950, as a Catholic he was buried in Ford Cemetery, Litherland, quite a distance from West Derby, possibly 8 miles.  JOHNNIE ...

Hi Kristina,

My father was Joseph Patrick Bolger born 1914, his mother Johanna, nee Delaney. We are a Liverpool family and so I guess there is some chance we are the same family as your Johanna. I have a copy of a painting of Johanna, and will post it up.

Many Regards

Janet Bolger
