Sailor's Children's Homes - Hull
« on: Sunday 04 January 15 17:55 GMT (UK) »
It is possible my maternal great-grandmother, Laura May Morley, spent some time at this home in Newlands (?) Hull, at the start of the 1900s. Where can I track down any details? Many thanks

Hi and welcome to Rootschat....Nanny Jan is correct....the records are kept at the Hull History Centre. Do you have her on the 1901 census? There is a Laura May Morley born Portsmouth living in Hull age 18 and working as a Housemaid....is this your Laura and was she from a seafaring Family?
If you google "Newland Homes .Cottingham  Road, Hull there is lots of information about the Orphanage.
What makes you think she spent time there.
