2010 has been designated as Year of the British Home Child in Canada. >From 1869 to 1939 various workhouses, sheltering homes, orphanages and child care organizations in Great Britain immigrated over 100,000 orphaned, abandoned, pauper children ages 1 to 18 to Canada today known as the British Home Children. Of the over 50 sending agencies, some of the more well known names are Maria Rye, Macpherson, Fegan, Quarriers, Barnardo, Middlemore, Catholic Emigration Society, Salvation Army, Church of England Waif & Strays. Canada Post is issuing a stamp to commemorate the British Home Children this October. It is estimated that 12%, over 4 million of the Canadian population, is a descendant of a Home Child. How many would there be worldwide? There is a British Home Child mailing list and accompanying Descendants website for further information http://www.britishhomechildren.org/ We hope you will join us in publicizing this important part of Canadian history by helping us spread the word and educating the general public by informing your Libraries, Museums, Genealogy Societies, Historical Societies and posting on websites.
