Hi Bill, One of my thoughts (at 5 am my time) is: Are you sure that your grandfather came over in 1911 ? Is it possible he came over in the 1890's and at first came to another Province? I've been on the BHC List for over 5 years, so I'm familiar with the situations. And, in my great-grandmother's family, she and her younger siblings came over 1874, and she was 14 * and her youngest siblings were 5 and 3. I found out last year that their older brother came over in 1873 at 17. He was at the Akbar Reformatory Ship in Liverpool, England; his siblings were at the "Liverpool Sheltering Homes." My great-grandfather also came over 1874 at Age 14; he also came over from the Liverpool Sheltering Homes. If you go to the page on the web site for the Canada Library and Archives, you will find some information: http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/archivianet/home-children/index-e.html I just did a search for the first name, Llewellen (sp?), and used the "wild card feature," and I found out that 22 children or young adults had that as either a first name or middle name: http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/archivianet/home-children/001015-110.01-e.php?PHPSESSID=nsj4v7tk9v0hobtjhnd3sfhbe2&q1=&q2=ll*&q3=&q4=&q5=&interval=20 And, there were about 10 children with the STRATTON surname. (Also used the "wild card feature" for Str * .... One of them was an F. STRATTON (male) coming over in 1893 at Age 11. There were 5 more with the STRETTON spelling, and one with STREETON and one more spelled STRUTTON. Over 2600 of the "home children" had the first name, Frederick or Fred, or the middle name. There was a Frederick STRETTON, 14, coming over in 1906. Just an FYI for researchers. If you have a spare hour over the weekend, take a peek at all the surnames in this BHC data base. (And, there are other BHC data bases.) And, both the term, "British Home Children" and "Home Children, Canada," are searchable at www.google.com Betty (near Lowell, MA, USA) My BHC great-grandparents had the surnames, LEWIS and CORKILL / CORKHILL. We may have arrived on different ships but we're all in the same boat now. :o) (thinking genealogy) (possibly first said by Martin Luther King, Jr.)
