Hi KathrynBryant, I was at Grayshott, Hindhead, Surrey, 1n 1965 August 30th when my son Mark was born and I am pleased to say that he was not adopted so after 18 months I got married and went up to Sheringham Norfolk to fetch him home and I had two more boys after that.  I wish I could say that we all lived happily ever after..... but its a long story and I would be happy to share with the person on this site who is writing a book.
But Mark is a wonderful son as are the other two sons I had later

I think the previous person who said this mother and baby home was called Grayshott, Hindhead, Surrey, because I was there in August 30th 1965 the day my son Mark Anthony was born.  My parents and my sister came for his Christening in the church attached.  We then had to take Mark to Sheringham in Norfolk where he awaited adoption.   But luckily for Mark and me, I was able to bring him home when he was 18months old when I got married and had two more sons.

I would be happy to communicate with any of the ladies who remember me Carmelina, I am maltese and I do remember several of the ladies but do not wish to name them in case they wish to remain anonymous.

I am glad to find this site and maybe I will connect with some of my friends who were there at the same time.

Surrey / Grayshott Convent, Mother and Baby Home in Surrey 1965

I have just found this site whilst trying to trace other mothers who had their babies the same time as me in August 1965.  I was one of the lucky ones because I kept my son after awaiting an adoption in Sheringham Norfolk for one year, so I was able to bring him home luckily as I was getting married and soon had two more boys.
I would love to hear from any mothers who may remember me, my name is Carmelina Taplin (nee Tonna) and my son Mark Anthony was christened at the church next to the convent.  I would be happy to communicate and I do remember a couple of names, but they may wish to remain anonymous.  I did watch the film Philomena which I think, has made it easier for us to come forward and admit our past.
