Hello everyone,
Attached is a picture of Harrisdale Hospital, Como at 321 Canning Highway,
Como. I found this in a book "Voices in the Dust - Australian Banning
Connections" by Laurel Harris some years ago when I went searching for the
hospital I was born in.
Regards
Sheryl

Myself and my 5 of my siblings were born at Harrisdale Hospital. My Mum
used to talk about "Matron and Elsie". Apparently both of them used to have
cigarettes hanging out the side of their mouths while delivering babies! I
think it was at 272 Canning Highway.

Hello
I was born in Harrisdale Hospital 17 November 1946 straight after the war.
My Mother would point it out when we came to the city and it was a lovely
old homestead. Does anyone have an original of the hospital.
I live now just down the road and It is all units now.
Many thanks
Lorraine Hewett
