Be happy and healthy ,keepsafe

I have sent you an email. Do you happen to remember a girl named Bettine? She had a daughter named Katrina Jane and gave her up for adoption. Bettine is desperate to find her. She was at St Mary’s in April 1963. Thank you in advance.

All of us who had the privilege and pleasure of living and growing up in the "HILL" and contributing and sharing emotions, anecdotes and memories - it was fun, but as someone has said... 'its Goodbye from me - goodbye from him and goodbye from all the others"

I was in the home at the same time October 1960 My son was born on New Years Eve. I remember some of the girls, Paulette and Elizabeth, who Ithink came from Reading. I think she had lovely red hairs. the girls were all lovely, sadly in the same plight as myself then.

I can be found

I wrote sometime back to you, John. I am really hoping that as time has passed that you have some comfort. Life is so short that I hope your birth mother Jacqueline is now in your life.

ydde

(ps I still cant spell proper)

salutations o wise one my self I fair health just her indoors seeing three or four consultants a month off to Watford tomorrow another gym day lost....alas I believe you are right about the once fabulous HILL as for parking no problem there is no parking all the spaces are taken keep well and keep hoping the HILL will return

live long happy and healthy

ydde

you have just read my mind I was just about ready to delete this site from the favorites list as it seems there are no people that are proud of their roots any longer it might be that some of the memories are fading or the fingers can no longer do the walking (a tv adert in uk) I believe the problem is with the internet as words in print are taken at face value so what anyone types may upset a lot of people whereas talking face to face people can read your face and realise that your words should be taken in an entirely different way

ilve long happy and healthy

walking back to happiness whoopee oh ye ye..

St marys stamford hill was where i was when i had my son at hackney hospital in march 1963 . Would be so interested to know if still there if not what is there. Also love to hear from anyone there at same time i left apreil 1963

Hi

Yes I am simeon

i was in st marys in 1971 my son was born in hackney hospital i am still friends with1 of the girls would love to contact any1 who knew me then. i was to get my son shane adopted but decided to keep him sadly he drowned in 1979.My name was johanna

My mum Julie Hoole know in the home as Lynn, spent some time at st Mary's before and after I was born. Today I found a letter from a girl she got to know while she was there. My mum would love to get in contact with her. Her name was Jennifer. In the letter Jennifer mentions. Audrey, Gay, Liz, and felicity. I was born on 6th may 1960.

My mother ended up at St. Mary's, 153 Stamford Hill, London N16 in 1938. It was like a home for unmarried mothers and was run by the nuns. My mother ended up there from Shropshire would you believe and ended up giving birth to my half sister not far away at 102 City Road, London which must have been the local hospital. I have a small baptism certificate from the nuns relating to my half sister and it is headed St. Mary's, Stamford Hill. I went to Google Maps and entered the address of St. Mary's, 153 Stamford Hill, London and it showed a large ornate building which I suspect was St. Mary's. My half sister now lives in New Zealand and has been there for 52 years!

Hi Elizabeth, could I kindly ask you to contact me on the email above.

I am seeking to trace someone who had a daughter who was subsequently adopted. The details match with the information you have posted, I would very much like to discuss this in more detail if at all possible.

Many Thanks

where have all the people gone long time passing

can I do you nah sir?

I wont take my coat off im not stopping

ullo ! ullo ! can yer ere me muvva?

Hiya, I am trying to find out a little bit more about St Mary's as I am doing some research on behalf of a friend, as we think her mother may have been born or stayed at St Mary's, we were particularly interested in speaking with anyone who was there in October 1960 - Its a long shot we know, as we do not know if there is definitely a connection but it would be good to speak to anyone who had stayed there and went through the awful process of adoption during that time. We really are struggling to gain more information as we know very very little. Please contact

one potatoe two potatoe three ,,or eeny meeny miny mo

the must be lots more all unique to that era but originating indifferent cultures there again cultures as such played less importance than todays politics
