In the 2001 publication Missing Pieces, records relating to the Bethesda Family Group home were described as including admission and discharge sheets, weekly reports, and some miscellaneous records. The publication also stated, “Unfortunately there are no client files for former residents”.
Investigations in 2023 to determine the location of these records, or how to access them, were unsuccessful. The current location of these records is unknown.
