Hi Roy

Thanks very much for your reply.

Sounds like I might have my work cut out.  I think maybe I will try the Chichester records office first and see what information I can get from them.

Best regards
Patience

Hi Jane, 

Yes it was harsh. 

I did meet her but it was never mentioned and as far as I know she wasn't bitter about it at all.

Thanks for your advice.  Am  hoping to get to Lewes sometime soon.

Best wishes, Patience

Hi Jane,

I am not sure I presume it was a remand home.  The story goes that she was reported to the police for stealing a bottle of milk from a doorstep.  She was kept away from her family for nearly forty years.  I just wondered if there would be any records in the papers or even police records that would be available to the public.

Best wishes
Patience

Hi all

I am trying to find out about my relation Violet Ella Jeffrey.  She was born in 1919 in the Lewes area.  When she was about 13 she apparently committed some minor misdemeanor and was institutionalised until she was in her forties.  I believe she was sent somewhere near Petworth but am not too sure.

Is there any way I could track these records down as I would like to find out what did happen.

Hi Cazzie,

Managed to get you a photagraph of Goda Road, Littlehampton.

I hope this gives you an idea of what the houses are like.

Best regards

Hi Suey,

Sorry I couldn't get back to you earlier.

This does look like my Hazledens.  The fathers name was George and the mothers name going by the SMI is Jane Brook which would all match in.

Thanks very much Suey and to you Tati for your help.
Regards, Patience
