1899 - 1966
Description

This series of volumes ends in 1966. It seems likely that this is because Erdington Cottage Homes changed at this time from a centralised system of administration under a superintendent to a system where each cottage was autonomous, and therefore would have had responsibility for its own records.

Covering dates in this series relate to the admission dates given in the volumes, not discharge dates.
