i am searching for family at the same workhouse, do you know if birth were
recorded by themselves or were they recorded in the creed registers?

Hello Linda

I have an ancester who died in St James Workhouse, Wesminster in 1861. He
had lived there for the last 6 years of his life, because of infirmity. He
had family but the informant, not family, gave her address as the workhouse,
I dont know if she was a resident or staff, but she could not write, she
made her mark. Obviously not the master. She was described as "present at
death".
