London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Re: Isleworth Nazareth Orphange - Nazareth House HOUNSLOW

You would be better to contact the mother house in Hammersmith. Isleworth Nazareth House was a mother and baby home for a short period in about the early 40s before becoming a nursing home until a few years ago when it was sold and bought by a housing contractor. It now has luxury flats and houses on the land. You may be lucky to get info from Nazareth House Hammersmith who kept records.

Just read the info re St Teresas Broome Lane Salford-My husband was born there in 1941and we often wondered why he was still with his mum when he was christened at 6 weeks-thinking that babies were taken at birth.

I was interested in what you posted as my mother was born at st Teresa's in 1941 and she was also moved to another convent home and her mother was supposed to have continued paying for her to be kept. Like your husband I think my mum was moved 3 times in Catholic childten homes to london till she was about 6 weeks with her mother in tow until all payments stopped her mother was no longer in the picture at this time.
I would be interested in finding out more as my grandmother was listed as a cook in St Teresa's in 1941.
