Hi all
I had a bit of a shock yesterday on the 1911 census I found my wife's father Samuel Baxter age 6.his sisters Nellie 18.Alice 9. and his father William 64. at A.U.W.C.H. under the heading of Institution.
Looking on the Workhouse web site I see that the Central Library has archives from 1889-1924 and I was wondering if anyone out there had cause to use them in the past and how comprehensive they might be before making a trip up there.
Any info would be appreciated. Regards Steerboy.
