Hello All,
I'm back here after recovering from my last all-consuming employment - it's been a long while. Hey ho back on the hunt and this is so much more fun :)
I've discovered a relative on the 1871 census as an inmate at a reformatory school in Lambeth. This school does not seem to have a particular name but is located at Manor Hall at 78 Lower Kennington Lane and the "Head" Superintendent is Jane M Macartney born around 1815.
I've tried to find this "home" on Peter Higginbotham's site but without luck. So then I tracked Jane Macartney back to 1861 when she is working at a home for 'fallen women' sponsored by Charles Dickens.
I am trying to find out why my relation was at the home in 1871..
Glad to be back
