Midlothian / Edinburgh workhouse records
« on: Tuesday 22 April 14 09:10 BST (UK)  »
Does anybody know how to research the Workhouse records for Edinburgh?   I had three uncles in there, name Marriott, apparently in the 1911 census.  But it does not seem to show on Scotland's people!

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers Perky

Family History Beginners Board / workhouse records 1911 census

Hi,   A Cousin in Australia has told me three of my Uncles are shown as in the Workhouse in the 1911 Census.

Edinburgh; John Marriott 15 messenger boy, David Marriott 14 Apprentice messenger boy and George Marriott 18 Apprentice house painter.

I have searched Scotland's people to no avail.   Am I missing something?

thanks for any help

Thanks for all the help.

I have now resolved the issue in that none of them went into Children s homes; they were all fostered out and I found them with various Aunts.

I now consider this thread closed for me.  Thanks again

Completed Census Requests / Children's homes
« on: Monday 10 February 14 22:01 GMT (UK)  »
I had several of my aunts and uncles sent to a children's home, somewhere in Edinburgh I think, in 1901 on the death of their mother.

Is there anyway of searching the census for children placed in Children's Homes?

Many thanks for any help given
