Is there anywhere on the internet I can look up Holloway prison births. I have recently found out that my father in laws' mother was born there. Her name was Maud Florence Sherratt born around 1900-1903. Thanks.

her birth should be on FreeBMD

would this be her family ?

Thanks for all your help. I have found a Maud on Freebmd under Edmonton in 1903 so I'll just have to get the cert to make sure. Thanks again

Thank you Chris for that info. Please could you help again.
I have found Abraham aged 8 in 1881 census with mum and dad, Eliza and Joseph. It states Joseph is an army pensioner born Manchester, Lancashire. The 1871 census, I have found the same parents with same kids but this time it says father joseph was born in Macclesfield, Cheshire. Do you think I have gone onto a different Sherratt family, even though the kids are the same and ten years younger?
