St Faiths School Heath Town Wolverhampton
« on: Thursday 15 June 23 07:38 BST (UK) »
Looking for school attendance dates of my mother Margaret Edith Mary Spittle born 1928.
She remembered having to carry a gas mask for school, so I presume that would be the late 1930s.
Any information would appreciated.

I see that you have previously requested this information on here and had no response. Have you contacted the archives to see if these records still exist

Wordlsey's mum was also born in 1928, and remembered carrying her gas mask to the school ;D

Some school log books up to 1925 for St. Faith's are online.
Not much help for Margaret! In any case, very few children seem to be named in them.

Looking for school attendance dates of my mother Margaret Edith Mary Spittle born 1928

Her mother was Evelyn May Spittle born 1903?
There is a school record for her from 1911 online.
Prestwood Road Infants
Evelyn M Spittle, born 9.6.03, 55 Leslie Road, father Harry
Transferred after a few months (to the junior school?)
It says she came there from St. Mark's Wolverhampton.

And at St. Mark's CE Infant School, Wolverhampton, from 1907- Dec 1910, we have
Eva Spittle, born 11.10.02, 77 Ash Street, father Henry
Left district 22.12.10
Siblings George and Annie were also there.

Curious about the different birth date!

Sister Annie Spittle, born 13.5.01, father Henry, made it to St. Mark's junior school in August 1910.
Another address for them! 62 Oak Street.
Again it says she left the district, 22.12.10

Prestwood Road Infants

If you have FamilySearch
No. 690 (over two images, date of leaving is on the next image)
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QHV-P3VJ-FNQQ

The one as Eva, with the wrong date of birth, St. Mark's CE Infant School, Wolverhampton (I do think it is her though)
No. 592
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QHV-L3VN-K394

Go back some images to the beginning of these registers for indexes of the children by first letter of surname.
Records are downloadable.

Log books of St. Faith's School up to 1925 only

Good luck!
