My grandmother was put into a convent or orphanage in Liverpool along with her older sister, gran was 17 when she left, but her sister stayed and became a nun. Has anyone any idea as to what or where this orphanage might have been?

If you Google Catholic Orphanages Liverpool/Lancashire you will get some sites. There are a couple of lists of orphanages in 1895..they probably still existed in the early 1900's.Eileen
