Hi,

To those people having trouble getting hold of records.  There is a history research project looking at women's history that has put a lot of medical records on line from Stanley Royd Hospital, besides other materials.

Have a look at http://www.herstoryuntold.org.uk/

You need to go to the Gallery and search for the person by name.  I think it only contains women's records, but half of my ancestors are women....

Hi Aguaazul

I too offer lots of good luck wishes.  You will need them!

Hi All

Reply from WYAS gives me only the date of admission of my ancestor and a web site for mental health NHS as they don't hold any other records of my relative!
