Canada / Home children sent by Sheffield Union/ Fir Vale Workhouse
« on: Saturday 03 February 18 15:14 GMT (UK)  »
Hi
 I would like to hear about any children who were sent to Canada via other agencies from Sheffield (Fir Vale) Workhouse. I am a volunteer at the Hospital History group at Fir Vale and know about some of the children but would like to hear more.

Gloucestershire Lookup Requests / George Wood
« on: Sunday 21 May 06 13:34 BST (UK)  »
My Great grandfather was George Wood who in later census always stated he was born in Stroud Glos. According to the census he was born sometime between 1829 & 1834.  On his marriage to Mary Ann Rock in Kingswinford 1852 he states he is a boatman as was his father also named George. I would like to find George in the 1841 & 51 census and to try and confirm his parentage and birth/baptism date so I can progress with that particular line. He eventually moved up to Cumbria. Can anyone help me with this? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
