St Joseph's Industrial School Dublin
« on: Sunday 25 June 17 22:39 BST (UK) »
Hi I've just found out that my Dad was sent to St Joseph's Industrial School in Dublin in 1927 when he was 13 as his Mother died. Can anybody please advise me as to how I might find records of his stay there? Thank you.

If you put Artane into the search at the top above the RootsChat banner there are quite a few threads about Artane records, the few I looked at all give Barnardos as good to contact.
