All Saints' School Admissions Register, sample of entries 1895-1898

Admissions from the Matlock All Saints' School admission register. Unfortunately the teacher never recorded the date when the child left.

The names provided here are only of children who had attended a school outside of Matlock prior to enrolling at All Saints'.
However, if your ancestors were living on, for example, Wilmot Street or Jackson Road, John Street or the Dimple area they are most likely to be found in this volume as this was their nearest school.
