I have established my grandmother winifred, or zena donelan was born in Marylebone workhouse 1908 but how do I access any more records as she has no name for her mother or father.

Lorraine, you should add this to your previous thread about her.

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.page/board/ancestors/thread/1293769

If you have established that she was born in Marylebone Workhouse in 1908 then you need to buy her birth certificate which will at least name her mother and possibly her father (unless she was illegitimate).

Name: DONELAN, Winifred Mary
Registration district: Marylebone
County: London
Year of registration: 1908
Quarter of registration: Apr-May-Jun
Mother's maiden name: Not available before 1911 Q3
Volume no: 1A
Page no:528

If you don't have her birth certificate how do you know that she was born in the workhouse?

They weren't born in the Workhouse anyway but in the Workhouse Infirmary which was open to the public who need medical care. Someone in the Infirmary wasn't necessarily a workhouse Inmate.

Things are being duplicated. That 1911 census was posted on the previous thread.
This is why you should have added to the previous thread not start a new one.

Lorraine

I spent a lot of time helping you with this yesterday, you should stick to that thread and stop people wasting their time repeating info

I found the birth for you, but it does not say anything about being born in the workhouse?

Can you add any other info you have to your original thread please

I am sorry didn't meant to upset anyone, did not realise I should use same thread. I wont do it again again I am sorry

I know certs aint cheap especially if you have limited funds BUT sometimes you have to splash out to see the info so you can progress!!

Lorraine

Youve not upset me but I wanted you to know that if you keep to one thread for Zena it will help us all

You can come off the naughty step now ;-)
