My Great Grandfather Thomas Hollins was in the Marchmount Home with 2 brothers, Samuel (eldest) and Charles (youngest).
They were together at Stoke-on-Trent Union, Staffordshire. They left England in the late 1800's for Canada. According to records they left behind another brother William and an Uncle Charles who lived in Longton. Should there be anyone that might have knowledge I would love to hear from you.
Regards,
Scott Hollins
