1. [UK-W&H] Do records exist for Irish workhouses in county Donegal please? [1]
Hello list members: My name is Mike Higney and I am new to this list. I am wondering if records exist for Irish workhouses in county Donegal please? I am particularly interested in lists of those living at the workhouse as I would like to know if any of my HIGNEY ancestors spent time at a workhouse? My ancestors lived in the areas of Donegal near Castlefinn, Stranorlar, and Killygordon! Thank you! Sincerely, Mike Higney

Hello: I'm interested in the Hanwell Asylum, (now St. Bernard's, Ealing?) where I believe one of my ancestors worked as a nurse from 1893. Does anyone know if there is a published history of this hospital; I'm interested in the conditions at the time, from the point of view of both staff and patients.

If the staff records are anything like the other workhouse records in the PRO then it is essntial to have lots of information before searching them as they are not indexed and can be copious.

Hi listers, Some of my BULLEMENT ancestors seem to have had some commerce with this workhouse. My gg-grandmother Margaret died there in 1875, and her young daughter, Mary, was living there in 1881 as a pauper inmate aged 8. Has anybody ever consulted records of this workhouse ? I will be returning to Yorkshire towards the end of the month for a few days and am likely to fit in a visit to the archives in Beverley. It would be a great help if I knew what I could expect to find beforehand. thanks in advance
