Workhouse records- completed
« on: Friday 23 January 09 16:09 GMT (UK) »
I would be greatful for any information regarding the workhouse in Tullamore. Does anyone know if  records survive for circa 1899. I would also like to know an address for this institution if possible.

Many thanks in advance

Hi scatty did you have any luck with finding the records ? I am researching my 2x great grandfather who sadly passed away in the workhouse.
