Any one else have a relative that came to wise county on an orphan train? I saw a presentation the other day at my local library about orphan train riders, and it got me started on my family history again. My great great grandfather rode an orphan train from the childrens aid society of new york to greenwood texas, and went to work for a family in chico. I know that there must be more relatives of riders out there. I would love to hear stories if anyone wants to share any! --------------------------------- Get your own web address.

Patrick, We have quite alot information about the Orphan Train at the Wise County Heritage Museum. We do research, if you are willing to pay for it.
