I think the following newspaper articles dated 10th August 1938 could be your Patricia. It’s a very strange situation!

Trish
Carroll - Monmouthshire/Glamorganshire/Cork
Hooley - Tattenhall, Cheshire
Lloyd - Gresford, Denbighshire
Platt - Wrexham, Denbighshire
Sullivan- Monmouthshire/Glamorganshire/Cork

 :o Could well be her, Trish! Certainly goes with all the mystery surrounding her.

It does sound likely. On her way to Halifax looking for work and on the 1939 register in Yorkshire. I wonder if she was trying to get away from somebody and maybe her real name was something else..or is my imagination running away!

I wonder what archives there are for the Gibbet Street Instution? www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/hospitalrecords/details.asp?id=2261

There is of course the 100 yr rule for many records.

Great finds Trish!!!  :o

Halifax is about 20 miles away from Featherstone, Yorkshire where she was in 1939.

Another newspaper article mentions she had black hair in an "eton crop" hairstyle. (just noticed the first newspaper report you posted mentions it)

Spooner - Monmouthshire & Wolverhampton.
