Thank you! I never thought about checking SA records!
Hello
Thankyou it's all quiet confusing for my nan who's now 84, I've only just been able to start helping her find out where she's from with the help of someone but when I saw where she was born thought I would look it up and surprisingly there's a group about it .my nan said she was Catholic and her parents Irish Catholic and born there .
She just feels quiet abandoned as she was adopted she thinks around ten months old but there could have been very good reason for adoption even know her parents were married maybe they had no where to go with new baby and struggled
I hope that's the case .
Thankyou

the salvation army homeless service have not moved far as they are just around the corner from loveday st in shadwell st...i like to donate to them every christmas
They are a wonderful bunch, they help a lot of people, and they're on my donation list of favourite charities too :)
 
Do you have any information on Loveday Street around the 1850s?
A map of that time would reflect any info.
I'm doing family history research and Loveday Street (no house number) is the address on a marriage certificate dated 1853 for Abigail Mayfield. Her name changes to Nightengale (or Nightingale) when she married.
Many thanks

Thank you for posting the photos. I was born here Christmas 1954. I went back a month ago and took current photos. Yours have enabled me to work out where the maternity hospital was. Met a chap who had lived there all his life and he was very helpful. I'm going back soon with your photos.
