Schools on the Manor

Hi

I wondered if anyone could tell me if there any plans to transcribe school records from the Manor in Sheffield. I have family that I’m interested in looking up from the mid 1920’s to late 1930’s and they all lived on the Manor. I’ve had a quick look on the school records but nothing coming up. The schools I’m interested in are Pipworth, Prince Edwards and Standhouse. If not would I be able to access these records at Sheffield archives?

Thanks in advance

Kerry

Hi Kerry,

Try contacting the Archives to see if they have been deposited.

NOT all registers were deposited with them.

Hi Kerry,

Sorry about that looks as if "Bravenet" is having an off day.

Hi Elaine

I know how it feels😂

I will contact the archives and ask them. Just out of interest why wouldn’t a school deposit material with the archives, particularly if it’s decades old? Does that mean that the school would still have it?

Regards

Kerry.
