There's usually a 100 year closure on hospital records but sometimes a
direct descendent can obtain the information if there is no one in
closer direct relationship still living. If the Health Authority or
local archive is willing to release the information, they may insist
on doing the research themselves so that other, still closed,
information is not seen by the enquirer.



This is quite correct. I contacted the ERO and they have been very helpful
and quick with their responses. The form that I had to fill in was asking only
the obvious questions, such as sources of my information, and proof of my
relationship.

Oddly though I have never received Heather's mail to which the above was a
response.

Thanks also to Sue, who pointed out my spellling mistake of Warley
Hospital.

Regards, Mick.
