Member Since: July 2007 Posts: 361 Send Message	Hi Does anyone know if it's possible to find records of the above? The particular one I'm interested in is the North West Surrey Asylum/Workhouse - my dad used both words when he was talking about it so I'm not entirely sure if that's just what they used to call it or something! Thanks, Clare

	I any records survive, they will most likely be held at the relevant County Records Office. Sam x
