Catholic orphanages in Edinburgh/ Leith in 1920s
« on: Saturday 07 November 09 21:51 UTC (UK) »
Hi,

Does anyone know of any ?Catholic orphanages around in Leith/Edinburgh in the 1920s?

My Great granddad had several younger siblings who allegedly were sent to one after their parents died (in 1920 and 1922).  They would have been there between 1922-1924 before my gt granddad brought them down to London (and then to the Calledonian Sch in Bushey, Herts).  My great aunt recalls being told of her father going to collect them but isn't sure of the name.
