Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home

The Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home, also known as St Mary's, or just The Home, operated in Tuam, County Galway, Ireland, from 1925 to 1961 as a Catholic-run institution for unmarried mothers and their children, on behalf of Galway County Council. Run by the Bon Secours Sisters, the home became the focus of national scandal after historian Catherine Corless uncovered that 796 infants and children had died there, many buried in an unmarked mass grave within a former septic tank.
