St Joseph's Orphanage

On Prestonblog there is a harrowing post by 'Marie' about this place, of which she has only bad memories. It was run by the Sisters of Charity of Our Lady of Mercy who were clearly misnamed. They had another orphanage in Pantasaph where children also endured cruelty (BBC Wales website refers). Did anyone else suffer at St Joseph's?
