Good Day Home Children What did a Home Child consist of and what was the age of the children comming to Canada to settle in Toronto between 1911 to 1916 The problem is my Grandfather Llewellyn Lyndsie Stretton Stratton claims that he was born in Malta 29 February 1880 of British Parents. Wouldn't this make him a little old to be a Home Child ? The problem is that no where is he to be found entering into Canada or on the 1911 Census under his above name My father's second name was Frederick meaning son of and granddad was named Frederick when he was baptized according to my father's Services records When he was married in Toronto in 1916 he was an widower to who I have no idea when he married my grandmother Bill Stratton Dartmouth NS
