St. Elizabeth Home (for girls?) in Clevedon

[etrotte]

I just googled "sister of charity", and found a website for the Religious Sisters of Charity that may also fit. In their history section, there isn't a home listed for Clevedon, but there is a St Elizabeth house that opened in 1900 in Birkenhead, Merseyside. I've contacted them to see if they also had a St Elizabeth house in Clevedon at the time.

Hallam Hall can be seen on the Clevedon 1884 Town Plan at http://www.old-maps.co.uk/maps.html?coords=340790,171757 Marked as St. Edith's Orphanage on the 1931 1:2500 plan.

St Edith's is plainly seen still on Google maps.
And marked as such - search for St Edith's, Clevedon.

There is also a St Hilda's in the 1901 Census at RG13/2355/38/20 St Elizabeth's is at  RG13/2355/39/21

Stan,
This must be the correct St. Elizabeth Home! For some reason I can't seem to find the 1901 Year-book of The Church of England through Google book search.

Ok, I had found the correct book. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a preview option for this specific page (153). I'll see if I can find the book elsewhere.

...Then again, there isn't likely to be any more information on St Elizabeth than what can be seen in the image you posted.

Don't get your hopes up, but I am currently in Clevedon Library!
Looking for any reference to St Elizabeth's, or Sisters of Charity.

I will report later if I find anything.
