According to my Grandma's birth certificate (Phyllis Una Orton), she was born at 37 Ledsam St, Ladywood in April 1899. Both her parents are named (her father was said to be living at 138 Dudley Rd, I think it says, occupation a milk seller). I'm trying to find out more about her parents, Charles Edward Orton & Caroline Elizabeth Orton.
My grandma ended up in Leicester on the 1911 census as an 'inmate' in a 'school' probably in service, although my cousin says that my Grandma was an orphan, so I wonder, is this why she ended up there?
Would love the hear if anyone knows anything about the address? Or about the Orton's?
