Dear List Members, I adopted the Orphan-Trains mailing list this evening and wanted to invite you to join if you have an interest in the history of the Orphan Trains which carried thousands of children to their new homes and families in many states from the 1850's to 1930, including Texas. If you would like to subscribe, send only the word SUBSCRIBE to ORPHAN-TRAINS-L-REQUEST@ROOTSWEB.COM Kathleen Burnett List Mom

Kathleen, I'm not familiar with the Orphan Trains. Could you give me some details on them?
