Hi, I wonder if anyone recognises these surnames? Mrs J. Wallen, D. Stanmore, E. Taylor, A. Wheatly? I have an autograph book belonging to my Grandmother who I believe was put into care or in an institution or children's home of some sort having been born illegitimately in Colnbrook in 1915.
I don't know where the home was but the book is dated 1930-1934 and there are lovely verses, some of a religious nature, attached to the names. There are many from, "Mother", who I imagine was the head of the home.
Do you recognise any of these names? Could you have relatives who worked in a home/institution during this period? If so, I would love to hear from you if you could shed some light on where this place might be as I am completely stuck!
My Grandmother was married in Birmingham in 1935 but prior to this I have no idea of her whereabouts.
Thank you . CHINCH.
