Hi all, I have just joined Roots Chat - been researching my family history and my gran and her brother and sister were admitted to Barrholm in Largs in November 1922 from Auchentorlie in Paisley.  Her brother died in 1923 and the two girls were fostered out to Comar Muir in Beauly in 1924 from Barrholm.  Paisley Heritage Centre were fantastic in providing loads of information in the Parish Poor records.  Dorm that I got details of family who fostered the girls and can see on earlier census records details of the foster parent from 1911 and also her death cert from 1945.  I have written to North Ayrshire Council to see if they hold any records for Barrholm.  If I get any, I will let you all know.

Best wishes,

Ann
