Children's homes or orphanages in Sheffield


Recommended Posts

Hello Brian

 

We are not living in Sheffield now,we moved to Lincolnshire in 1985.

Cannot get to Sheffield very often due to Tom's health.

It was only by chance I found this site I had been doing family history and looked up FCH.

Have you seen the old pictures on the Photographs of Sheffield-----before your time.

Tom says is there any chance of you letting him have a copy of that photo of him on the beach in his costume. We have non of him when he was young. If you can I will send you an email with our address, unless you are able to scan and email things.

 

Do you remember a Miss Maltby who was a housemother? She was my cousin.

 

Thanks Brian

 

Hi

 

I was a 'resident' of FCH from the early to late-50s. Do you recall a Miss (Rosemary) Bower, the house-mother of Cottage #9?
