The Patient Files-Maternity date from 1950 to 1958. They came from the Meercroft Hospital in Devonport and the Devon Public Hospital in Latrobe. The files were selected from the patient records of the Mersey General Hospital, which succeeded the other two Hospitals, because their Labour Ward Books for this period could not be found.
