Maybe it is just me - perhaps I am out of practise but I am befuddled on how to access references via this new catalogue.
Can someone explain how to access the Tynemouth Workhouse records (references)via this please?
Thanks
Added: It's alright I have managed to 'get in' with a part reference I know and adding an asterisk
e.g - PU.TY*
Not just you RTL, its not the most intuitive of searches and (in my opinion) it takes you all round the houses before you get to what you want to look at.
But we finally have a catalogue, so we have to be thankful for small mercies !
So, I started here:
https://twarchives.org.uk/collection/catalogueand then clicked to access the catalogue. which got me here:
https://calmview.twmuseums.org.uk/calmview/From there , should you know the catalogue ref (e.g. PU.TY*) then use the advanced search
But mostly we don't know the reference so
In the "Find a record" search box I entered
Tynemouth Workhouse
and on the resulting page saw an entry with the Ref No PU.TY which is billed as a "collection" under the title of Tynemouth Poor Law Union
Click on the Ref No (PU.TY) and then yet again on the next screen click on the Ref No PU.TY and
finally you get to the Hierarchy Browser ( list of what they hold)
Which, no doubt, is what you wanted as it gives a list of the various type of records , which can then be drilled down to see the reference for whichever time frame you are looking for.
