Poor Relief
« on: Monday 15 May 06 21:58 UTC (UK) »

Does anyone know if you can look up poor relief on the computer at home?
I had a quick look at The Mitchell Library last week, but not enough time to search through the books.

Thanks Joette,
I have taken down some ref numbers and info while I was there last week, but never had enough time to ask the man to bring the book up to read, as I was flying home that evening  Cry
I have e mailed the Mitchell to see if they can let me know the parents names.  Huh
My mum in law found her grandparents, and it's amazing what info she has, they are posting out to her. I can't wait to read it. You're right some of it is very sad.

Oh well that will teach me to spend my last day shopping in Glasgow  Wink

I love it there, and can't wait to return.

I will be at the Mitchell  in a fortnight-baby being born permitting(not mine!)& would be happy to transcribe any info-I think they may even allow the filming on a digital camera-I am going to chance my arm anyway. Roll Eyes-as my Granny would say "If you don't ask you don't get"
If you would like me to do any look-ups let me know your details

Thank you Joette,
You worried me at first, I thought you was due to give birth in two weeks.
Shall I pm you the names I got from the poor relief and the H-Dew call numbers, dob etc .....

That is very kind of you, I wish I could jump on a plane and go back, but I can't leave my husband looking after the children again  Huh so  soon.

No it's my nephew's wife that's about to give Birth-my sister thinks it will be any day now-she is desperate to become a Granny but I can't believe my wee sister is going to be one!
Yes if you pm me with details I will be happy to have a look as I am unlikely to have any more of mine there-I found three two of which I wasn't looking for & didn't find the one I was!
Anybody else I am happy to have a wee look too-baby depending-I may be up to my elbows in nappies.!

She had the Baby yesterday at 9:15 a boy 7lbs 6Oz's-so much for the 5lbs they told her to expect.
He is blue eyed,dark blonde & with long fingers & big feet.
Amy had a very long painful labour but they are both es tactic with their wee boy.
Will hopefully still get to the Mitchell & check out your Application.
I think they are going to call him Adam as he is the first & looks like himself.

Ah that's great Joette,  Cheesy
Congratulations to you nephew and his wife.

Ooh much bigger than 5lb  Shocked

Not to worry Joette when you get there.

I'll have to have a drink tonight to wet Adam's head  Wink
