Will be interested to know if you find much detail from the records as my grandmother's sister had a daughter at the Mrs MacAlpine home in Manchester, in similar circumstances in 1904. Sadly the child died a year later. The father is unknown and the birth was away from the home town of Derby.

Hi everyone,

Just an update! I emailed the archives and sadly they do not hold any records. All they have is a small booklet that was used to promote the home.

Such a shame, I was hoping to find out some more of my Great-Grandmother's story.

Thank you all for your help though.  :)
