Chester House of Industry. 1851

[J.Patricia D]

 I read with interest the posts regarding  "Liverpool Workhouse"  I am wondering if anyone knows of a site with information regarding births at Chester House of Industry (Workhouse) in 1851,
        I have my gggrandmother living and working there 1841/51 and my ggrandmother being born there, both Eliza Clubbe. On my ggrandmothers marriage certificate (to Daniel Moores) it gives her fathers name as Thomas Clubbe.(Chester) I can find no record of him or of any marriage between him and gggrandmother.   I have been struggling with this for a few years, any help or ifnormation greatly appreciated....Joyce.

It includes a description, map, a photo and an address for records
