Cricklade Workhouse
« on: Sunday 04 September 05 18:05 BST (UK) »
Does anyone know if there are records available for inhabitants of the Cricklade & Wootton Bassett Union Workhouse in Purton, Wilts?  I am wondering if my g.mother was born there in 1911.
Thanks for any pointers.

Follow this link to a really good site about workhouses.
There is a page about Cricklade and Wooton

On the page he lists the records that are held by the county record office which includes the guardians minute books for the period you are interested in.

Good luck with your search.

You are welcome. I would recommend the website to anyone who comes across ancestors in the workhouse.
