Hello everyone
I'm trying to track down the records of the Church of England Adoption
Society. It was founded in 1919, and subsequent name changes include the
"National Adoption Society and Unsupported Mothers Comprehensive
Service". It was registered under the Friendly Societies Act 1896 - 1929
and the GLC under the Adoption of Children (Regulaton) Act 1939.
The number of enquires we've been getting from people asking about
adoptions is increasing and we'd like to be able to offer as much help
as we can. We're aware of the service offered by the Family Records
Centre (ie the Adopted Children Register), but any other leads would be
gratefully accepted.
Thanks,
Lynda Barraclough
Assistant Records Manager/Archivist
