Hi all,
Was wondering if anyone knows how or where I can go to find listings of Orphanages, homes or other institutions that would have young girls there for the 1901 census. My gran was in a Soldiers Daughters Home, Hampstead, one sister was in The District Female Orphan Asylum, Beddington Surrey, another was with family in Cardiff. Their mother was in Willisden, Middlesex all in the 1901 census but Dorothy Ellen Bird born Sept 1/4 1892 Paddngton, cannot be found as I have no idea how to get the names of these institutions.
Any help would be appreciated
