Oakshaw boys home: records?
« on: Thursday 16 August 18 00:31 BST (UK) »
Hi!

Does anyone know where I can access records for this training/industrial school for boys living there from about 1941?

Any help much appreciated.

 Try this website http://www.childrenshomes.org.uk/list/CoS.shtml. It lists the home as Oakshaw Home for Working Lads 26 Oakshaw St East Paisley and run by the Church of Scotland. Not sure if the records  still exist .
