My Grandfather, JOHN WILLIAM HARTSHORN, was born to his unmarried mother in Shrewsbury in 1887. He next turned up in the Newcastle Industrial School aged 14 and she in Leicestershire. By 1906 he had also moved down to Leicestershire. I have no information about his stay in Newcastle, when he arrived, who placed him there and if he had any visitors while there or what he trained in. In fact, I have no information at all.
I understand that records of the school for this period are in TYNE AND WEAR ARCHIVES SERVICE, BLANDFORD HOUSE, BLANDFORD SQUARE, NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE. NE1 4JA
I would be most grateful to anyone who could find the time to visit and look up this information for me. Thank you,
David
