Locating foster child records from the 1930's - 1940's in Northern Ireland.
Hello all,
I am just wondering if anyone has any idea on how to access or locate foster child records from Northern Ireland in the 1930's-1940's. My grandmother was a foster child, and I'm trying to locate her actual birth name and birth parents so I can add them all to my family tree.
I have reached out to the Public Records Office of Northern Ireland to get any form of assistance regarding this issue, but they only stated that the General Registrar Office of Northern Ireland holds all Birth, Marriages, Death and Adoption records for Northern Ireland dating from 1864. They also provided the following link.
I would be grateful for any assistance/advice offered to me so I can find my family.
Thank you.
