Can anyone tell me anything about orphanages in North and South Shields that were operating around 1941? And where can I find info about them?

Hi Claire, You could try this link for North Shields and I'm sure Sout Tyneside Council would have the same sort of link http://www.northtyneside.gov.uk/newsinfo/family_link.shtml Kay
