Blackburn Workhouse - 1907 Ellen Mahony
« on: Tuesday 29 November 22 17:48 GMT (UK) »
For anyone who may have access or may be researching Blackburn Workhouse records (I am not based in the UK so unfortunately it is not easy for me to access these).

I am looking for details on an Ellen Lamphier. She also used the alias Ellen Mahony. She was deported from the Blackburn Poor Law Union Workhouse in Nov 1907 along with her illegitimate son James (born Sept 1907) to the Limerick Workhouse, Ireland. She is originally from Parkstown, Horse & Jockey, Tipperary, Ireland born 1871, however, there seems to be confusion over her age as other placed she has reported her birth year as 1888.

Any additional details anyone could find out about her time in England, how she came to be in Blackburn, etc. would be appreciated.
