I looked up Ellis on the new Home Children National Archives >site (which is pretty good, by the way) Thank you for the kind words. The British Isles Family History Society of Greater Ottawa has been working on this project for several years now. My husband has transcribed data for three years. There is still a lot more work to do and the staff at the archives have their own preessures in trying to get our data ready to post. If you think an ancestor may have been a home child and you do not find him/her in the database, don't give up. There is still a lot more to come. Marg
