Hi Annie

Oldham Local Studies and Archives have got  an ongoing display about the Glen Mill Prisoner of War Camp to mark the 60th anniversary of it's closure.

There is a small amount of info on their website.
http://www.oldham.gov.uk/community/local_studies.htm

They are also asking if anyone has any info about the Glen Mill camp and its inmates to get in touch with them.

Sal

Hi Sammy

Oldham Local Studies and Archives have some of the records for Oldham Union Workhouse.
They have the addmission and discharge registers, Creed registers and the relatives registers on film, they are hard to read in some parts as the writing has faded.

My grandfather was in Oldham workhouse at the time of the 1901 census, he was admitted in 1900 and discharged 1906, i have been able to get copies from the addmission, dischage and creed registers, but for the time he was in the workhouse there were no relatives register.

Hope this helps
