My grandmother was left in a convent with her sister
possibly brother while her parents worked, since she was born in Berkely, this looks like a possiblity.
Her name was Violet Pounder, her fathers name was Sims Fredrick Pounder, mother Laura Pounder. Any info much appreciated, as living at the convent had far reaching effects for generations of my family.
