Surnames: Herington Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/JEB.2ACE/221 Message Board Post: ISO my birthfather's family. His adopted name was Herington. He was born circa 1933 to a Danish family in the Portland area. His father broke up the family after the mother died (of left). I'm guessing he was placed in an orphanage until the Heringtons adopted him at the age of 7 (1939, 1940). Does anyone know of any orphanages that exisited in Portland around that time? I've found the Holy Innocents home and the Children's Home of Portland. My search for the Heringtons has been unsuccessful. Thank you.

Michael W. Connors is listed in the Portland Directories until 1960, but is not in the 1961 directory. In 1960, he is still at 37 Whitney Street and listed as retired. His wife is listed as Mary M. I hope this helps and can look for further details in the directories, if you would like.
