hello
have found a possible link to the family i am researching STAFFORD on 1901
census but no other census returns
they lived at adamstown but my grandmother was born in enniscorthy county home in 1923 and baptised there too (enniscorthy),was wondering how far adamstown is from wexford if this is the right family,how could i go about finding records for St johns? and would they tell me where my gr grandmother MARGARET STAFFORD lived prior to confinement,read a book about homes run by irish nuns for unmarried mothers (as margaret was) and heard they keep them for up to two years or until adoption of the baby whichever is sooner,could this have happened as my nan was 'sickly' and given to her uncle and his wife in 1925 (aged two) any info thanks
