All of the orphans left by the cholera epidemic are listed on each of the censuses living at St. Aloysius Home on 22nd street by Qcy College.

I thought in one of the cemetery books it might've mentioned some names also. You might try to email the Quincy Public Library and ask them if there is a list somewhere that has names. I know there is an 1850 Mortality Index out and if someone died of cholera during 1850, it is listed in that.
