Hello Shirley,
I took a look online and found three websites that you may have visited but
thought I would post again. For the young child was it that they had no room
for him elsewhere I wonder?

Hi everyone
I am helping my friend with her family history ~ her father was born in
Montgomery, but my query is to do with her maternal ancestors. As the list
is so quiet I wondered if anyone could explain why a very young family have
been split up into various Workhouses/Establishments after the father runs
off with another woman i.e.
According to the three 1911 Census the mother is in Warwick Union Workhouse
and Infirmary, Union Road, Warwickshire with her 4 year old daughter. Her
eldest daughter age 6 (my friends mother) is in Warwick Union Childrens
Home, 16 Willes Road, Leamington Spa, and her son age 2 is in a State
Inebriate Reformatory, The Cape, Warwick.
I would be very interested to hear any thoughts you may have.
Kind regards
Shirley
