'Twyford Lodge' ???

[Kerrywood]

I Have at least 3 people who have died at this location. Their death certificates, however do not reflect the names as noted in Peter's post #8.

The whole point was to draw a veil over the name of any institution that was (or had been) a poor law institution, because of any stigma that might be attached to it. Hence these other names that were used, some of them invented specially for the purpose.

For an explanation, please see here and scroll down to Willesden.

Old habits die hard.
My brother was born at Central Middlesex Hospital in 1948.
As far as the family was concerned, he was born at Park Royal.

They sure do John.

My grandmother died there in 1953 - her death certificate says "Park Royal Hospital"

My Great-grandfather died there in 1936 - his death certificate says "Twyford Lodge"
