Surrey Institutional Records 1788-1939 - findmypast

They say: Explore over 200,000 assorted records from 16 institutions across the English county of Surrey, including poor law unions, workhouses, schools, infirmaries, goals and more. Each result will provide you with a transcript of key details from the source material. The records cover 13 places in Surrey: Addlestone, Chertsey, Cobham, Dorking, Farnham, Godstone, Guildford, Hambledon, Redhill, Richmond Upon Thames, Southwark, Warlingham, and Woking. I assume that when they say "goals", they mean "gaols"! |
Thanks Kite.
This is really useful. Not much actually survives, but I've found an ancestor's son being forced to maintain him. |
Interesting, I wonder if any Woking Asylum records are on here.

Warlingham - that will be the local asylum, then. Used to be a mental institution, then a drug rehab centre and now it's housing, though they've kept the clock tower.
Warlingham is about 2 miles from my ancestral gaff, it's where we went to the butcher and the baker (alas, no candle stick maker) and where my Dad is buried. But I won't find any ancestors in the records as Mum and Dad were born in Kent and Stoke Newington. |

Yeah, I've not been able to find anything relevant, despite Woking being covered.
