Eric. Welcome to the Forum from another born at the Canadian Memorial hospital- in April 1930, so you're just a sprog ( like all the others on this thread!). I lived in Cornwallis Avenue & went to the County School in 3rd Avenue, which you would know, before joining the RAF as an Apprentice at Halton in 1947. Small world; I run a Halton reunion Association & one of my friends- who emigrated to Perth W.A.( sadly died a few years ago)- was also born at the Canadian in 1931! My Dad had been in the Navy ( engine room artificer) & my friend's Dad was in the RAF (Sgt./ Flt. Sgt.) so not officers at that time. I suspect that this maternity hospital was donated by the Canadian Red Cross after the WW1, as were many other hospitals - or Wings, etc.(e.g. my son was born at Cliveden Canadian memorial hospital when we lived in Maidenhead). I've not been back so don't know what finally happened to the substantial hospital buildings, maybe a " local" can let us know please? Keep in touch, where in Oz do you live?
