I've got three missing children between 1891 and 1901 all born in Hunslet, Leeds, Albert Fryer born 1885, William Fryer born 1888 and Joseph Fryer born 1882. I've have been informed that two of them were sent to Canada from a Dr Banardo's home and the other child remains a mystery.In 1891 their father Joseph was a widow and all his children were living with him but in 1901 the remaining children were living with the eldest brother and a daughter aged 10 was living in an orphan house in Bristol. My query is how can I find which Dr Banardo's home they were sent to and when were they sent to Canada. Can anyone please point me in the right direction Ann

Hi Ann, The Canadian Government has funded a site called "Home Children" at the following URL. I do know one of the people that is involved with the site if you have problems. http://www.collectionscanada.ca/02/020110_e.html Good Luck. Elaine in Ottawa.

There is a lady whose job is to hold all the records for such children Her email is valerie.smith@barnardos.org.uk She will send you a form and will then reply Philip ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gordon Mccallum" <gordon.mccallum2@ntlworld.com> To: <WEST-RIDING@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, August 17, 2007 10:11 AM Subject: [WRY] Dr Banardo's/Hunslet children > I've got three missing children between 1891 and 1901 all born in Hunslet, > Leeds, Albert Fryer born 1885, William Fryer born 1888 and Joseph Fryer > born 1882.
