I have been trying to track down the detail behind my G Grandmother and G Aunts whereabouts at the time of the 1881 Census.
The are recorded as being at 120-121 'Homes' Nolton Street Bridgend.
I know their mother died prematurely in 1873, so it is possible that they ended up is some kind of institution. Please could some help me solve this riddle. ???
Many thanks
Jo :)
