3. Re: [UK-W&H] County of London Lunatic Asylum [1]
Hello Adrian, Records for the County of London Lunatic Asylum are held by the London Metropolitan Archives. The reasons for admittance to a "lunatic asylum" could be varied and vast, ranging from a number of disorders that we would not consider "mental illness" by todays standards. Do you have Joseph STOCKTON'S death certificate? This would give you some idea of the reason for him being admitted, although the admission registers would ideally tell you more.

6. Re: [UK-W&H]Tavistock Union Workhouse [1]
I have located an 8 year old child whom I believe to be a younger sibling of my grandfather in the Tavistock Union Workhouse. She is there in 1881 and she is gone by the 1891 census. Does anyone know how I go about finding records from the Tavistock Union Workhouse? What kind of records did they keep on these people? Did they keep records on where they went when they left there? Thank you for any help you can give me.

> Please does anyone have information regarding the above. The 1891 census shows two lads one of 13 and one of 9 being residents. The older is definitely my great uncle but the younger, whilst the date fits does not, quite, have the correct Christian names. What I really need to do is see the admissions register. Cornwall Record Office tell me they do not have them, the documents I have looked at the PRO is only correspondence and doesn't really show any names. Does anybody know where the records might

17. Re: [UK-W&H] Fw: Leicester Workhouse [1]
I would like to know about Leicester workhouse; Annie Ball her children and Dan Merrick (alias the 'Elephant Man'). He was there for nearly 2 years until he went to the freak shows. At age 18. Hi Harry, The surviving records for Leicester Workhouse are held at Leicestershire Record Office in Wiston Magna. I would suggest that a visit there would be useful, particularly as they have the Admission and Discharge Registers for the period when Merrick was in the Workhouse. As Merrick was a local lad, they may a
18. [UK-W&H] Aston Union Workhouse [1]
I feel I should pass on to the list the very sad news of an Arson attack on the Victorian Grade II Listed Building, formerly known as Aston Union Workhouse. The Building was empty having been vacated by Highcroft Hospital, and was awaiting redevelopment. The fire, reported on by the Sutton Observer, caused severe damage to the first floor and the roof. There has been no news to state if the redevelopment will be able to continue, but of course fingers crossed that it will. All the best, Jan www.workhouse

> Just wondering if anyone knows what records might be available for CAMBRIDGE UNION WORKHOUSE in the 1830s-1840s? Hi Leone There are a few records for Cambridge Union from that date. The main ones are Settlement and Removal Orders - these are where the person claiming relief was not a resident of the Union, so the Board of Guardians would have taken legal action to get them sent back to the Union they did belong to. There are also some Bastards Maintenance orders up to 1840. All these records are at Cam

I have just got my fathers birth certficate and it shows that his mother was living at 56 Fortess Road, St. Pancras. It also showed that she was a general servant of St. Pancras..Info about the above enquiry is that my father was born out of wedlock 16 Dec 1902 @ Queen Charlottes Hospital Marylebone Road. His mother Florence Elizabeth Warden. I believe she kept my father until he came to Canada in Apr 19, 1913 as a Home Child.
