Hi - my grandfather was also a Home Child (came in 1910). In addition to the sites already suggested, I would add David Lorente's: This one provides details on the receiving homes in Canada, including the Knowlton Distributing home, and the Gibbs home in Sherbrooke - where your relative may have most likely come through - the site also provides advice on how to do research about the Home Children, i.e. obtain documents and records about your ancestors from the "child saving" organizations in England, etc. http://pda.republic.net/othsa/HomeChild/HomeIndex.html Marj Kohl's website mentioned is also excellent, and the mailing list is very interesting but I find it way too busy - there are literally thousands of us out there searching for information; and I sometimes receive dozens of messages a day on this one. The guy who started the list, Perry Snow, has published an "on-line" book (you can download the table of contents and the first chapter I think for free, and then order the rest if you like for about 30$ (?). The book is called Neither Waif Nor Stray, and tells the story of his father, who came through the Gibbs Home I believe: http://www.upublish.com/books/snow.htm and his page is: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~britishhomechildren There are lists of Home Children here - I tried to take a quick scan for George and John Clark(e) but the pages seem to have always had some trouble loading - there is too much info.. I could load the "A" page but not "B" and "C" which are supposed to load together with A... you may want to write to Perry Snow yourself anyway. Hope all this helps... Heather Howard Toronto
