Hi, I know this slightly off topic but it is my understanding that a lot of Hudson Country orphaned children wound up at the St. Joseph's Orphanage for Boys in Englewood Cliffs. Well, through the gracious efforts of someone (who I hope is on the list) I have discovered the records repository. The records are housed at Seton Hall University in Orange, NJ. Yes, it is the Seton Hall you hear about on the sport channels. I am not sure if it is Orange or South Orange but it is one of those towns. As for the moderator, I know this off topic but I thought it may help some member in their search. Jill Jill A. Pierson [email protected] and [email protected] "The truth is this, the march of Providence is so slow and our desires so impatient; the work of progress is so immense and our means of aiding it so feeble; the life of humanity is so long, that of the individual so brief, that we often see only the ebb of the advancing wave and are thus discouraged. It is history that teaches us to hope." Robert E. Lee
