Do you know her real name? I'm not sure if nuns would be registered under their real or religious names. |

My great aunt was a nun and her death was registered in her real (birth) name. |

Perhaps a starting point would be to contact the Nunnery (sorry can't think of the other name for a nunnery!) where she first became a novice. I think they should have her records - or at least be able to direct you, if they don't, to the relevant place. Victoria |

Hi, As far as I am aware the Order to which the nun was belonging to would have all the details. They keep meticulous records. So if the nun was of The Sisters of Mercy, Camelite, etc. then you would need to locate the Headquarters and write to them. Bye Paul |
