If anyone is visiting the Gloucester Archives in the near future, would you be able to do a search of Cheltenham Workhouse Admission Registers between 25 April and 2 June 1904. It appears that they still exist for this period - with gaps!
Edith Kate Barton (b. 1879, Cheltenham)
Sydney Owen Barton (b. 14 April 1904, Alderton)
25 April 1904 - Mother and son taken from Alderton to Winchcombe Workhouse (records destroyed in a fire)
?? Transferred from Winchcombe to Cheltenham Workhouse
2 June 1904 - Son baptised at Cheltenham St Paul Church - address Cheltenham Workhouse
By the 1911 Census they were living in London where fortunately they both thrived! If you have time for further searches, it would also be interesting to discover when and under what circumstances they moved from Gloucestershire.
Thank you in advance for any help.
