Sussex / Hailsham Union Question
« on: Thursday 09 November 17 12:49 GMT (UK) »
Hi all,
I have found a relative of a friend who's birth record is down as "Hailsham Union" as their district. I can only find records of Hailsham Union as a workhouse. is this correct, if someone's birth district is Hailsham Union, does that mean they were born in the workhouse or born to parents who were in the workhouse?
Thank you
