Penninghame Industrial School
« on: Saturday 07 January 12 12:47 GMT (UK) »
Does anyone know anything about the Penninghame Industrial School for girls.I have found the illigitimate daughter of my GG grandfather's sister in there in 1871,transcribed as an inmate.The school was in Newton Stewart.

Long thread here http://boards.ancestry.co.uk/localities.britisles.scotland.wig.general/1886/mb.ashx
Gets more relevant to school towards the end.

Seems to be some others on Google.

Thanks ikas,I had googled around but most seem to be others asking the same question.I wondered if someone from the area might have a bit more knowledge.

Thought you might have!
Take it the records are not with the solicitors then. Pity.
