tenterdon workhouse 1890s
« on: Sunday 24 July 11 07:23 BST (UK) »
does anyone have access to records for the union workhouse in tenterdon in the 1890s?
i have records from the 1891 census which shows alfred ashdown and his three sons william, george and charles being there. the ref numbers are 121/5 and 121/6. alfred later died in the workhouse (imbecile)
are there any further records available?
thanks, kerry, nsw australia.
