Lancashire Lookup Requests / Liverpool Orphanage 1917 - 1930's for a child from the Bootle area?
« on: Friday 10 October 14 13:54 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I was wondering if someone could help me. I have two children in my family tree whose Mother died in 1921 in the West Derby district of Liverpool. Her name was a LETITIA QUICK ( nee KIRBY ) She married their father in 1917 his name was a THOMAS ELLIS QUICK. Their father was a merchant seaman who was away for long periods.
The children were JOHN QUICK who was born in 1918 and a THOMAS QUICK was born in 1920
I have no family stories in who may have looked after these children. So would they have been placed in an orphanage / workhouse??
They both lived to serve in either the army or the territorial army? I have a picture of one of these children in some uniform ( at this time not sure what?? )
I have posted here on this website enquiring about this family before, but I only found out to-day that there may be a possible death for LETITIA QUICK in the Sep quarter of 1921 in West Derby.
I am going to obtain this certificate in the next couple of weeks, to see who registered the death and were she was living when she died.
How would I find out if these children were placed in an orphanage?
Any help or advice would be welcome.
Kind regards,
Pauline.
