What does the code NSM006 mean?

When someone was admitted to an institution such as Newington St Mary they were entered into the admission register. Usually, alongside the entry was added a number. On this website we may refer to this number as a 'Relief Number', but that's perhaps a little too formal. It's simply an incrementing number in the register; the number is not specific to the person being admitted.

On this website the transfer codes take the form of a three-letter establishment code plus a three-digit relief number, which is the number usually written alongside each person's entry in the admission registers for that establishment.

In many, if not most, cases an individual will be recorded multiple times in an institution's admission registers. This means that the same transfer of the same person may have multiple codes, but also that the same code may be used for multiple people.

This repetition isn't always useful, but sometimes different details are recorded in the different entries. For example, a later entry might add information about the whereabouts of a child's parents - a parent may have since died, released from jail and so on. Ideally we'd see each transfer between two institutions recorded twice: the discharge from one place matching up with the admission to another. The date recorded for each transfer may be either the 'chargeable date' or the 'date sent to nurse.'

Where available we have added a reference to the Ancestry.com scans of the admission registers for each transfer, so that you can check out the individual record yourself. If you spot an error in our database please let us know!
