    I have just looked at my Notre Dame History and find thar Manchester was not one of the ND boarding schools, so there would be no pupils named/redacted at the school as they were all living in their own homes within the area. Within the history it shows nuns cleaning the house. Notre Dame Convents used the monastic orders as their models of practice and had very strict rules, which I remember very clearly!

    I cannot find out much about Manchester in particular, though the ND nuns from Everton Valley and Mount Pleasant Liverpool went to their house in the country in Manchester, but no address given! The Manchester ND Convent was founded in 1851, so it might be worth looking up previous census to find actual address and maybe further history.
