I'm not sure if this is possible, but I am looking for information on 2 children who are listed in the workhouse on the 1851 census

James Mantle, Age 9, Pauper, Born in France
Henry Mantle, Age 4, Pauper, Born in France.

Any information on these two, especially dates of entry and exit of the workhouse, and the jackpot would be parents names or other family members.

There is a lot of detailed information relating to Aston Workhouse on the Birmingham Archives website, found using their catalogue search.

This includes the information that, sadly for you, there are no admission and discharge registers and very few other documents relating to workhouse inmates.

Thanks everyone for your input, as ever it is much appreciated.

Lots of information has been tracked down as per the other thread, and I am still evaluating that.

This one was more specifically for the workhouse records, but sadly it looks like they might not be available at all.

Once again though, thank you.
