Your friend was born in 1936 ?

Is your friend in contact with his mother's extended family?
Someone might have a photo.
In my experience, they are often passed down to females of perhaps a younger generation.

As the hospital was residential, I wonder if their records might hold a photograph, although if they do, this might be subject to a privacy clause?
You can but ask, if you explain the family link.

Garlands Hospital closed in 1999

there is a tree on ancestry

parker tree
moonpalace
Cumberland, England, United Kingdom

sarah and thomas had child marked private on the tree

That child is the friend on whose behalf Pauline is posting ;-) ;-)

yes it was a mental Hospital she died in and do not release photos to the person been dead a 100 yrs
shame because they have one
Thank you for your help
