I have extensive details of the Tildesley family but alas, for Anita, I lost sight of her after the 1911 census showed her and her husband staying at a Bloomsbury hotel. No wonder I couldn't trace her much after that, changing their surname  really put me off the scent. Send me your e-mail by PM and I'll send you all the information that I  have managed to collect of this family.
Richards in Anglesey. Liverpool, Cardiganshire.
Richards in Patagonia and Canada. Owens and Williams in Holyhead. Laird family, Birkenhead. Richards-Bridges family, Epsom.

Thanks that would be great but I'm new to this so I don't think I can PM yet?

Hi, I never knew this history of the Gors Hospital as it were. I was born there in 1964, it's recently been on the market as a building with several flats, I'm not sure if it sold or not.

I was one of many girls and boys born in this hospital, I was born on the 7th July 1977, i don't know how long it remained open. My mum told me about the day she gave birth to me and how you were expected  to stay on the maternity ward for 12 days so the midwifes could show you how to take care of a baby, and fathers could only visit for an hour each day. Most nurses were nice but a few were not, its amazing to see how times have changed over the years, it has been renovated quite a few years back to create flats, I don't think I could live in one just too spooky for me as it is very ugly building

Hi,
This photo includes my grandfather Bertram Brassington (far left). On the back it is inscribed:
May 4th 1920
Taken by Nurse M Williams at Lady Thomas Home
Holy head
Marriage of Nurse Rose & R Strahan

I cannot find a record of this marriage.
Must be a coincidence being Nurse Rose but the home is without doubt the one you are looking for. It does give some idea of the uniforms.  I'm happy to send bigger files if of interest
