Bethany Home survivor group claims more babies died at the home

Many Bethany Home children were farmed out to what the group describe as 'Horror Homes'.  Up to 37 children from the Bethany Mother and Baby Home were buried in a cemetery without being listed in an official death toll, it was claimed today.
A memorial with the names of 222 kids whose remains were put in an unmarked grave at Mount Jerome between 1922 and 1949 was unveiled in 2014.
