I have definite info on the children as one of them was my great grand mother. I have all of that documented. Some of this info I also got from the Children's Home Society as that is where some of the children went and were farmed out to foster care. My great grand mother's name was Susie (Susan) and I have info on her up until the 1940's when she 'disappeared' after her and my great grandfather divorced in the 1920's (it was a big scandal and even in the local papers here). The other siblings were named: Emma, Rebecca, Elizabeth and Willie. Sidney died May 31 1905. After he died, the children were then turned over to the CHS for lack of support, poverty, and neglect. Willie was not released until 1906 until he was weaned. That is all I know (other than the info they sent me on the siblings and my GGM. I am searching for Sidney's family and also again at some point, I will try to find where Susan ended up. Thank yo! u for the info thought. If you could look up based on the info I have, I would appreciate it! almost forgot, the report said Mary (Sidney's wife) remarried and became an "ODUM" and lived in Vista, Florida.
