2:31 pm
it's some sort of physical connection. the physical connection. it might not have a whole garter kiss, but at least you've got something to talk to in the halls somewhere else. these are the survivors of a scandal that is still rocking ireland born and catholic institutions and still trying to discover their identity and trace their birth parents the the seemingly tranquil town of tomb and western ireland. a place that and a car again, just can't seem to forget. this was once the sight of a mother in baby home run by catholic nuns up to 1961 unmarried women were sent here to give birth. the remains of 796 infants lie here.
2:32 pm
this is the, the list of the children who died in the home. here, john does mantell and he died 15 months. john, her older brother was born and apparently died here. and then there was william. what happened to and his brothers, and there was no official grave for decades. the nuns didn't just hush off the high rate of child mortality in the home. they also humiliated and neglected even the very youngest of children. and a still doesn't know what really happened to her brothers here. it's a very strange position to be. and because i have one brother here, i mean has a death search. so i'm not blue, but he's here. i have another brother who's dead. does you have a death certificate? no reason for that animal select believe he's here for the yes,
2:33 pm
he's not on the names of the 796 these 3 carmel larkin, walter, francis and p j have or t survived the home into the full deal for hello. hello. hello, walter, how are you? i'm with there. i just came in to add a quarter again met them 8 years ago, shortly after the scandal made international headlines. oh, i was looking at impairments because if they could be my brothers because the age pro 5 for see if you are filling in from a parents, i knew nothing about my mother's thing. somebody didn't tell me before he should have a p j have her to spend almost 7 years in st. mary's mother and baby home. then he was put in foster care. most of the other survivors were given up for adoption. so the kid all the office, i was one of the lucky ones. i was lucky, i probably would use board and maybe has to be a,
2:34 pm
be in the us and they survived. it's a frightening place. it's beside the said place because i could be in here is when this, what frightens me, what was going on in to was being practiced systematically throughout ireland. those were the findings of a report published by the irish government in 2021 and investigation into the countries 14 largest homes up to 1998. revealed that 56000 women had had their newborns taken away from them and released for adoption. the in the ultra conservative catholic ireland of the time getting pregnant out of wedlock was seen as a sin and castle pollard. there was also a catholic mother in baby home. paul redmond was born here in
2:35 pm
1964. the building is long empty. but the home dominates his thoughts. he wants to understand what happened to him here. that was, that was 58 years ago as a malvin saw, it brings box a lot of memories because this is where i last saw my motor for the last time. i've never seen or since the more than 4500 children were born in the home in castle college. a catholic quarter of nuns ran the institution from 1935 to 1971. paul redmond's research shows that the nuns pressured the mother's into signing adoption papers for their children. paul was separated from his mother shortly after his birth, and he was adopted when he was just 17 days old. that's a very mixed emotions going back here because it's where i live. start of my life
2:36 pm
color gone and one of 2 directions. one was to stay with us from the motor total was to be adult. this saw this place is like i'm a rail junction with 2 rooms or trucks and the old right golf. the more it was on my mind. why was i given away? what happened? is there something wrong with me? he now knows that his birth mother is called adeline. she was 20 years old and, and married at the time, her parents paid the order $100.00 irish pounds to make the baby disappear. of the if you are pregnant, denied, and then you were married. then you were just a horrible, sooner on the penitent, as they would do anything they called to just pull issue for loss. so it's important that we remember all these things and bear with this and make sure to future generations. stone for gas poll redmond has set up
2:37 pm
a self help group to make sure that doesn't happen. how are today he is arranged to meet others like himself on the side of the former home here. yeah. all right, for this you guys know re, you good to see you yet, so you guys are saving a small home, wants to give others the opportunity to confront their past. almost all the adopted children are trying to trace their routes. many do not know to this day who their mother was missing documents and the non stony silence also dogged lawrence cloaks attempts to trace his past. like when i started looking . and i got in touch with the nuns and they said it's very difficult. go back and look for your mother, like because she could be anywhere in the world. that's gonna cost money. because we lawrence received this letter from the religious order back then. paul reads it out to the group. this is time consuming and called the expense of sell. if you
2:38 pm
want us to go ahead, we would need help in that area as we are in voluntary society. well, that's the straight of law item, or not voluntary safe of hearts adoption. sorry, the sauce was a professional and registered agency changing baby, and they got they got money from the government to look after. for 2 years, the nuns kept demanding money from lawrence and kept finding him off. she was from the nuns only revealed his mother's name when he threatened to stop the payments. and when i was adopted, i was looking to come back and find out. yeah. and the 191991 race. i found a lot about 2025 years and i finally filed another 10 years after that was a long back. for a long time, the survivors were unaware of the scale of this inhumane system. paul found out that almost one in 10 babies born in castle pollard did not survive. ready
2:39 pm
literally right between a need are fee stores of those $245.00 form of burials and the $150.00 still by itself is about $400.00 pages. very dear paul has written a book about ireland mother in baby homes. ok, so is being adults digital slowly, 100 percent face, which are toppling families. have the adults fully faced with charged actual fabi either because they're gone. so with the volume is be easy to over. they do sort of feel a sense of kinship. and we all call one another, a creative mace, and the group is being a huge benefit for everybody. and if i people talk about the last about how has changed our lives and made them feel less lonely and give them the best sense of belonging to the survivors for yesterday's unwanted children.
2:40 pm
the, the mother in baby home in june was torn down in 1972. catherine corliss has a scale model of the building in her living room. the amateur historian brought the nuns, appalling abuse to light. she discovered that the baby's bodies had been disposed of in a disused sewage treatment system under ground. she had uncovered one of the biggest scandals in irelands history. when catherine confronted the authorities with what she has discovered the stone walls, nobody wants to hear bosses that fight everything to come out against me. even the
2:41 pm
people per, per treasures of course tried to stop me a call because the counselor did everything in their power to stuff me because they knew what happened at their response. but so they did their best to cover up while homes like whom were run by catholic nuns, regional authorities were generally responsible for their supervision. one woman against the church and the state assisted in her research by her husband, aiden irish media 1st reported on the scandal in 2014. catherine began receiving threats and that is still going on to this day. but she refused to be intimidated. interviews, i would probably got some, and tyler said that i had to do this. and especially when nobody was listening or want to listen, this is as if i couldn't just a baby so they become really babies to me. and just because to really just some of the work, the work in the park and, and i put enough understand toiletries,
2:42 pm
it isn't bad. they brought into the lord could not be in parkins. they wouldn't give the medicine, they wouldn't call a doctor. and they just let them die. i physical and her death certificates in particular, continue to haunt catherine. some records of the other mother and baby homes spacious. that's the that's for, for suffice stuff. some other with the told us to seek a birth of the baby dies and a set of tests that they may have been given to a couple from america or are elsewhere as quite possible. that's a lot of the babies haven't died at all. so this term provides the best or, or you think you're going with in the course of her research. catherine has made many of the survivors, her revelations, have changed the lives of p. j, have her tea and carmel. larkin. she's returned a piece of their identity to them and america it is for him. now he's
2:43 pm
a carpenter. that's where you type in bar and carmen here and then the charter. so you're now back here. that's that was a bit further say. and then yeah, your poor mother then after giving birth to to the left over here she was given 7 days rest with the baby. the notes the 7 days. so just and that was, it is open and do all the heavy work that's with populations. lots of some scrubbing floors student over time. yeah. birth certificates, adoption papers, letters for decades. the nuns and the adoption authorities kept all these documents under lock and key here. but he was afraid of the police, afraid of the religion, afraid of everything, day to control on everything completely. and the effect in that they didn't want us to do one thing and just hide over thing. it was another way of torching you. there was no investigation as to who did all of this done much while you, with the baby's pushing to the doctor your time. you couldn't take the knowns. i'm anyways, cause they have mess up amount of money. the government even were afraid to confront
2:44 pm
the norms of the church. they could get a top bar to store or celeste or in the waters, not in europe. so how could you, would you compete that you couldn't win, as no one was held responsible for the dead babies of june? the order is none that ran home only apologize in 2021 when the government published its report. and that report came too late for many of those affected who doubt whether the state is really interested in uncovering the truth. pga haggerty is now 71. he lives just a few kilometers from to a small farm. peach . it was just under 7 when he was fostered with the stigma of being illegitimate,
2:45 pm
has stayed with him his entire life. so when they came to my teams that someone's, i've got very difficult for me, then that's when i got the abuse from people that found out that i was born notices outside of wedlock, which is a big mark to send a volume that statement, just reject you back to you and just called your names for no, actually a reason. i couldn't understand why an old that's affected me growing up at the eventually then i went to a river to do away with myself because i couldn't take anymore life. life didn't look back on june and i still have that insight me all the time. like, you know, i really do the irish government has announced compensation plans, but only those people who spent at least 6 months and a mother and baby home will be eligible. pj, i have her to you is.
