    Histories
    Susan Wooster and Family - Greenwich Workhouse Admissions
    Susan Wooster and Family - Greenwich Workhouse Admissions
    Susan and her family were admitted to the Greenwich Workhouse on 3 Sep 1903 as destitute with husband Robert’s address not known. They were all discharged over the coming months, but Susan was re-admitted in January 1905.
    On 29 July 1920 Ada, Mary, Florence and Winifred were all admitted with both parents of unknown address. Ada was 18 and working as a shop assistant but presumably was struggling to cope with looking after her younger siblings alone.

    Winifred Learns to Cycle - Or Not!
    On August bank Holiday Monday 1934 at 6am at the age of 21, Winifred Frances Wooster chose to try to learn to ride a bicycle, but when she came to a steep hill was unable to stop the bicycle at the junction at the bottom. The bicycle ran into a hedge where she suffered a multiple fracture of her leg, and has never cycled since. She was taken to the Little Cottage Hospital in Aldershot, where her leg had to be reset 3 times and took a month to heal.
