Wow that made me cry so sad Jacqui ! How brilliant that you are doing all this research , it’s absolutely fascinating! How people were treated back then ! As a single mum myself, through no fault of my own, what would have happened to me back then. Makes me shudder.
Thanks Francis! I have to send a lot of credit to Dad and Aunty Mary. I'm just putting words around what they found out. I look forward to sharing more of Grans story- it's quite amazing that I'm even here!!!
It’s so interesting going back to see how your family lived, but what strength they must have had and such hard lives. A sad story, thank you for sharing it Jacqui.
Thanks Margaret. I just can't imagine what she went through - especially in the two years after they first went into the workhouse. We so easily forget just how comfortable our lives are these days.
