Hi Chacha

The information was from the 1901 census for the Portsmouth Lunatic Asylum.

These links may help you find further information.

Jool,
I have just received the death certificate for Marie Frances Geoghegan and yes it was her that was in the Portsmouth Lunatic Asylum she died of Pulmonary Tuberculosis, (the death certificate states that she was a Needle Woman) so unless she was put in the Asylum becuse of her illness I do not know, I did get in touch with the Portsmouth Records Office but they cannot access the records that I want until 2018 as that is when they will be availiable as they are closed for 100 years from the year of death.
chacha.
