There was the City and Town Home in Newburgh off of Lake St. I know poor people and orphans were living there.

I have "missing children" dating from a marriage of 1909 who disappear after 1919 and with talk of childrens homes I wonder if they could have been taken in at one of these homes. My family were living in Highland Falls when they broke up so apart from the High Street Home in Newburgh are their any other institutions in the area which might have taken them.As far as I can tell the family were Protestant and not Roman Catholic which might be a factor. If they are in these institutions then perhaps I might find them in the 1920 Census, when I get access to one. Thats a visit to the LDS FH center. So if anybody can give me any ideas/locations I would appreciate it. Regards Mike Greatorex Harrogate, England. Looking for Greatorex's in North Notts, Sheffield, Orange Co, NY, USA and Alabama. http://www.freewebs.com/greatorexfamily/ ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

There is one list I am aware of from 1900 on line for the Children's Home at 18 High Street, Newburgh. I'll find the address and post it. Other than that I'm going through census, page by page. If I find anything that looks like it would be promising for someone I'll post the info.
