Does anyone know of a book or any other way i can find out about the Birmingham Foundlings? There are plenty about London homes but i am having trouble finding out about the B'ham ones .Thanks.
This link will take you to information about the workhouse in Birmingham and there is an e-mail address where you may be able to find out more information from the website owner.
There are various references on the website which you can make a note of and it states that the Birmingham City Archives also have some information and they may be worth an e-mail too.
There is also a mention of parish registers from the workhouse in the archives so you may be able to find out more personalised information from this.
