Hampshire & Isle of Wight / Re: Mother and baby home run by nuns in Southampton during the 70s

If you do an open search for Nazareth House you will find a lot of information on N/H, there is one part where you can do a search for births.
  No pics of the new N/H only the old house. I am sure you will find some information on one of sites. Good luck with your search.

Hi, I think you may be looking for Nazareth House,which was in Hill Lane. In the Polygon area of Southampton.It was / is a home run by Catholic nuns.Im not sure if it is still being used.It was a home for unmarried mothers It was used up untill the  1980, I moved away from that area in the 1980s. I am sure if you search Hampshire Website there will be a picture on there.

Hi, I think that address should be Woodley Rd, Woolston Southampton. I could make a difference when you are searching. I live in Woolston.
Good luck searching.

Hi mersey man

I have looked at this picture several times, this ladies face lookes so familiar,I wonder when this picture was taken. It lookes like a council house.I was born in  the Woolston=Sholing area of Southampton.A lot of council properties in Southampton were this pebble dash outer surface so it is hard to say exactly where it is.Some sugested areas are Woolston/Sholing/Peartree and further a field is Shirlley Warren and Maybush.I will keep wracking my brain to see if I can pin the area down more precisely.

Many thanks to you both for the information, the picture is very interesting, I did'nt expect it to be so big, I thought it would be a small village chapel.

Carmarthenshire / Tabernacle Chapel Carmarthen help please
« on: Thursday 10 March 11 23:36 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,
 can anyone tell me where this church is/was
My G/Grandparents were married in 1881 at the Tabernacle Chapel in Carmarthen.
Mr G/G was Daniel Jones farm labourer Father John Jones father deceased,G/Grandmother Ann Thomas father Thomas Thomas deceased, both resident in Llandefeilog.
Witnesses were William Gravell  and Mary Jones. I wonder if William Gravell has a connection to Ray Gravell the rugby player.
I have just noticed that it says Baptist Chapel. I have  searched for ages trying to find it without any luck.
Any help would be appreciated.

Armed Forces / Re: Where do I start to search?
« on: Wednesday 12 January 11 22:03 GMT (UK)  »
Many thanks for the information. My dad died 20yrs age, so I am not likely to be able to find out about his time in the second WW. All I know is that he was in Belguim Germany and Holland, and that he helped to recover soldiers from behind enemy lines. He never spoke very much about his time in the forces, it seemed that he wanted to shut out all memories of it.
