	Hi I am trying to find out when a family member was in this workhouse as i found an old local newspaper article about the person in question and it stated that she had " been in the chesterfield workhouse 2 years previously" and now she was in the grantham workhouse in 1915 after a court appearance where her husband had admitted not maintaining his wife. The dates were about 1909 to 1911 as on the 1911 cesus she was living with her husband in Buckingham terrace,Unstone, nr Chesterfield. would there be any chance that someone could look this up please The name in question is Annie Morley (nee Hoff) Thanks for looking Colin
