Hi Susan Whilst I cannot confirm that this was the address of the Stourbridge Union Workhouse, I can tell you that by that time it was the normal practice only to give the street address of institutions, and so it seems very likely.

Also,would anyone know if someone was born in the Workhouse,whether that would appear as their place of birth? I have a birth certificate dated 1905 which gives the address as 12,Stream Road,Wordsley and I am wondering if this is in fact the Workhouse.The child was illegitimate and the father is unknown. Thanks for any help, Sue. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
