Help - Maternity Hospital records 1916, Mustow Street
« on: Wednesday 26 October 16 22:02 BST (UK) »
Could anyone help me find records or information about:

Maternity Hospitl, Mustow Street, Bury St Edmunds.


My grandfather was born there but no father is listed on his birth certificate. I dearly would love to be able to trace my family tree back a bit further if anyone can help?


His name was Cyril Tanner, born to Katherine Sarah Tanner August 1916.

Any help or information would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

I'm afraid that if no father is on the birth certificate it is unlikely that they will be on any hospital records.

Do you have a marriage certificate for him - does he give a father on that?

He does, Charles Tanner. But I think that is actually Katherines father. It looks like he might have been brought up as her brother.

Unfortunately there is no census documentation for his childhood years....
