NORTHERN IRELAND
BBC News
A witness at the Historical Institutional Abuse Inquiry has appealed for help to trace her Irish family’s medical records.
The woman was shipped from Nazareth House in Belfast to Australia when she was four.
Now in her 60s, she said she wanted to see her records because two of her children had died at a young age.
She said the information was “extremely important” as she had other children and grandchildren.
She told the inquiry sitting in Banbridge on Wednesday that she was born to a Catholic mother in Dungannon and said she found out in recent years that her father was “a Protestant landowner”.
