Wadhurst History Society - wadhurst.info/whs/ has a newsletter - Newsletter No.9 (Jan 2006) Page 4 has the detail already posted above
A short update appears in newsletter No.10 on Page 7 - wadhurst.info/whs/newsletters/whs10/page7.htm
It includes names of relatives of Ellen MOORE who may possibly have taken in her son.
Finding out what happened to Ellen may be difficult for you from your location. Once detained in Broadmoor, her release on licence would have been at the discretion of the Home Secretary. Some records relating to Broadmoor are held at The National Archives and may be subject to a period of closure. It may well be the case that she was not released.
Searching freebmd for marriages of Sidney T MOORE brings up a lot of hits from 1926-1945, none of which stand out as obvious possibilities..........and that's assuming he kept his name, he may have been adopted.
In your shoes, as a first step, I would be inclined to try contacting the Wadhurst History Society to see if anything is known locally.

Broadmoor patients' archives are at the Berkshire Records Office in Reading, so I'd contact them. Even if they can't open the records they might be able to give you some information about whether she was released or remained there.

Hi Hepzibah...from the information I have from the 1911 census it states a son Stanley Thomas More age 2 born in walthamstow essex...other information states that she was found to be certified insane and removed to Broadmoor Criminal Lunatic asylum on
12 Feb 1915?...consequently the case would not come before the court. Any more information you may come across in your travels could be gratefully accepted. Nice to meet you~Leisha

I don't have any e-mail contact details for the society, their web-site does include telephone numbers and a postal address for various society officials.
The webmaster of Wadhurst.info which acts as a gateway may possibly be able to supply an e-mail contact?

Hi all
I was researching this story sometime ago. I am part of the family history group within WHS - although have not been involved for a while. I will look at my research and see if I can help further.

Hi Leisha
Nothing yet. It is so hard to research as you come forward in time, what with the 100 year/75 year/50 year privacy rules. Have you contacted Berkshire record office to see if they will give you a release date for Ellen if they have one? I will keep thinking.

Don't forget folks , the census taken between 1910 & 1912 is subject to copyright etc and any listing could
mean loss of your membership.
