Norfolk Lookup Requests / Barford Baptism look-up - Woodrow
« on: Sunday 31 August 08 19:35 BST (UK)  »
I was wondering if someone could help. 

I am researching William Woodrow (born 1819 Barford) and I know in the 1841 census he was listed as living with his father (a widow) on Norwich Common in Wymondham.  However I cannot find out who his mother was.

Would someone be able to look up the baptism record for WIlliam Woodrow to see if his mother is listed on there?

Thank you.

Norfolk Completed Look up Requests / Ancestral Villages

This website is excellent and have only just discovered it so thought I would add a link here.  Obviously the more people adding to it the more useful it will become... I am trying to add all my ancestors but it is taking a while!!!

ancestral villages does not exist anymore June 2013

Norfolk Lookup Requests / Wayland Union patient records
« on: Wednesday 07 November 07 00:28 GMT (UK)  »
I was wondering if someone going to the Norfolk Record Office would be willing to look at the following for me:

(Ref C/GC11)  Records of Guardians Committee No.11 
and
(Ref H6/8)  Wayland Hospital Register of Births 1914-1939
Wayland Hospital Register of Patients 1919-1956

Looking for any mention of the birth of Anthony David Edwards to his mother Edith Miriam Edwards on 10 November 1934.

I would be more than willing to pay any expenses incurred for this trip.  If not does anyone have any ideas where else I may be able to find this information?

Norfolk / Cades Hill House - Attleborough
« on: Saturday 27 October 07 23:53 BST (UK)  »
I am tracing my father's side of the family and his late adopted brother was adopted aged 4.  From the adoption record we have managed to discover his biological surname and ordered a birth certificate.  Born in November 1934, his mother is listed as Edith Miriam Edwards of Great Ellingham.  No father is listed.  Place of birth is Cades Hill House, Attleborough and the informant is a G Oates described as Occupier of Cades Hill House.  Does anyone know of an Edith Miriam Edwards born/living in Gt Ellingham?

After much detective work I received information from a local lady that Cades Hill House was a home for unmarried women/girls to give birth linked to Wayland Infirmary.   I assume I am not the only person who has an ancestor who was born here.... has anyone got any further information on Cades Hill House/Wayland Infirmary in 1930s?  I cannot find a Kellys Directory later than 1829.

I am also hoping to find out what happened to him between being born in 1934 and being adopted by my grandparents in 1938.

Any information would be much appreciated.
