Williard Home, Indiana County, PA, USA
The Indiana County (Pa.) Home was situated on the old
Campbell farm outside
the city limits. About a few hundred yards down the dirt road was the
Williard Home.
The County Home was primarily for indigent adults; those with little or
no
family and/or money. It was sometimes referred to as the poor farm or
the
old folks home.
The children's home housed mostly orphans and some children whose parents
could not control them at home. I was "put" there because my
father (who was
born in 1862 during Lincoln's admin.) died. My mother, who had been
mentally
ill since about 1932, was becoming a nuisance bothering people, had to be
put
in jail until they transferred her to the State Hospital. There was no
one to take care of us kids. Only my younger
brother and I were placed in the Home. My older brother and sister found
a
"home" with relatives. My oldest brother was 17, my sister,
16. I was 14
and my youngest brother was 12.
I suppose there were about 50 or so children at the Home while I was
there -
give or take a half-dozen.
After just one day at the Home, my brother and I decided to find other
quarters. After school, instead of going back out to the Home, we
canvassed
the old neighborhood asking neighbors if we could live with them. We had
an
aunt who lived by herself in a large house, but she wouldn't take us in.
I
remember telling her that we wouldn't eat much and that we'd sleep on
the
floor.
So, we were taken back to the Home. The Matron had a talk with us and
said
we wouldn't have to be there too long. We would be placed in a foster
home.
Well, that never happened.
We spent our days working in the fields - there were endless rows of
corn,
potatoes, tomatoes, etc.
We eventually got used to being there, however. One can adapt to most
anything at that age.
The "bedrooms" were somewhat like an Army barracks - there were
about 12 or
so cots running down one side of the room with a like number on the
other.
No privacy. There was one room - a linen closet - where shirts and
pants
were kept. One just picked out one of each to wear. Sometimes they even
fit. No one owned his own clothes, as such. Saturday evening was bath
time.
The smaller kids got in the tub 2 or 3 at a time.
The
Williard Home was, I believe, called the Children's Home to distinguish
it
from the County Home.

Vermilion County Orphanage,
Vermilion County, Illinois
1932-
1936
My dad, Wesley E. Ford, (born 1919) and 2 of his brothers
spent 4 years of his life in this orphanage. His father died in 1929,
leaving his mother to take care of 5 children. She developed cervical
cancer, leaving her unable to take care of the kids by 1932, when she was
placed in a hospital/nursing home at that time, until she died in 1939.
My dad would often tell us stories of this orphanage, the one I remember
the most was how much he grew to hate tapioca pudding - he said they
would serve it to the kids, and it looked like little eyeballs in the
pudding! Which I think is particularly funny, because my dad can eat
anything and everything on this planet that is edible, but he won't go
near tapioca pudding!
Anyway, I'm looking for anyone that served their time in this orphanage,
my dad is still alive, he's 81 years old, and I think he might like to
correspond with fellow "inmates".

NY
I am looking for information on the St. John's Orphan Asylum,
aka, St. John�s School and Asylum located in Utica, NY. It was founded
in 1834 and run by the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul. A new
building to house the orphans was built in 1912. In 1901 or 1961
(conflicting records) it became Utica Catholic Academy, a girl's school.
I am looking for physical information on the building and also
information from residents who lived there.
I have found the St. John's Orphan Asylum records at this website
http://www.loc.gov.coll/nucmc
Included in these records are Minutes of the Board of Directors, 1849-
1951; minutes of St. John's Orphan Asylum Corporation, 1942-46; minutes
of the Advisory board, 1947-56; resolutions, bylaws and administrative
reports, 1834-1951; correspondence, 1884-1979; annual reports, 1880-1967;
financial and legal documents, including deeds, 1831-1968; clippings,
1858-1979; photographs, c.1890-1969; and school yearbooks, student and
faculty handbooks, programs, articles and brochures.
The location of these records is:
Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul
Northeast Province Archives

Albany, NY 12204
If anyone who lives in the area can access these records I would
appreciate them contacting me at [email protected] as I am very
interested in obtaining copies of some of the earlier documents (I live
in Colorado). I'm willing to pay for what I get and also donate the

St Johns Orphan Asylum, Utica,
NY
Here's the basic history of St John's Orphan Asylum in Utica,
NY:
It was started by John and Nicholas Devereaux (brothers). They appealed
to the newly established Community in St Joseph's Valley, Emmitsburg, Md
and the request was granted. After a journey by stage and canal boat,
Sisters Etienne Hall, Lucina Simms and Theophilia Williams arrived in
Utica and opened the ninth establishment of the Sisters of Charity in the
U.S. in a small house on St. John's Street.
The Devereaux family continued its charity and it was their desire that
the institution be entirely supported at their expense, but the sisters
also set up fundraisers for support. Then in 1849 an order was received
to releave the Devereaus family of the charge and the institution became
an incorporated body. The Asylum was incorporated in March 28, 1849.
The Rev Joseph Stokes and Francis Kernan served as president from 1849-
1863. Since then the institution has been under a board of directors and
a superior has served as president.
In 1853 Michael McQuade and his wife, Johanna gave a gift of land. In
1872 the institution received a part of the county tax for charitable
instituions. By 1897 the grounds belonging to the institution covered an
area of about 32,000 sq. feet.
In 1907 the Sisters were offered a 2-story frame building near the
outskirts of Utica. It was located on top of a steep hill. About this
time Mathew A Carton purchased the land and deeded it to the Sisters of
Charity for the purpose of errecting a modern, well equipped building.
The building was occupied in 1912. The site comprised 22 acres. The
initial cost of the building was more than $150,000 and it had
accomodations for more than 300 children.
The new building (the address was now 2527 Genesee St.) was 3 1/2 stories
high and in 1942 the name was changed to St. John's Home and School.
Formerly the school was strickly a girl's school, but in 1925 St. John's
took in boys between the ages of 6 and 10 after a fire destroyed another
Utica orphanage known as St. Vincent's Protectorate.
A further merger came in 1955 when St. John's took in infants that
previously had been cared for at St. Joseph's Infants Home, founded in
the 1890s and located on Green St in West Utica. It remained as St.
John's and St. Joseph's Infants Home until 1961 when it became Utica
Catholic Academy. As of 1-8-95 (the date of one of the articles I am
quoting this from) it it now known as the Academy at Southgate
condominiums.

I was in the orphanage(Methodist Children's Home Little Rock

have recently obtained my original birth certificate which states my
Mother as Rebecca Underwood Patterson and my father as Reef Warren
Patterson. It further states that I was born in Mobile, Alabama August
21, 1957. There is also information stating that there were two previous
births. I am trying to locate my siblings. I was four years old when I
was adopted and don't know if my siblings were at the orphanage too. If
anyone in the Mobile, Alabama or Little Rock area has any information
that could help me locate my family it would be greatly appreciated. I
was told early on that my Mother had died and that was the reason for my
being placed in the orphanage. However, I have no proof of this. I am
now 44 years of age and my children are always asking about my birth
family. I would love to have some answers.

It's time to heal the wounds of yesteryears...
It's time to face all the fears......
It't time to shed the tears......
It's time to remember the yesteryears....
Where are the memories?
Where do they hide?
They are within us deep inside...
They rule our destiny and hold the key...
As to what our life was meant to be.
The hurt, the pain, the guilt and the shame...
The laughter and tears....
These are the memories of the yesteryears.
My laughter sustains me, my anger subsides...
My heart now speaks to the place deep inside...
The cycles not yet broken, like pearls on a string...
It's taken the present to explain...
No one's to blame.

Tioga or Potter County,
Pennsylvania (and surrounding areas)
I am not an orphan from a home, but i have been searching for
one for quite a while. My problem is that i do not know the name fo the
home(s) that the people i am searching for were in. I am looking for
anyone who may have information on Nathan Allen and his sister Kathryn
(any variety of spellings) Allen. They were left on church steps in Tioga
or Potter county somewhere around the years 1906 to 1909. the children
stayed together in the home they were sent to for some time then kathryn
was sent elsewhere and Nathan never saw her again. I am searching for
this information for my boyfriends father. He is the son of Nathan and
would really like to find his fathers sister. If anyone could help me
with the names of the homes in these areas or maybe someone finds the
names of these people familiar i would really love to hear form you. We
have no idea where the family comes from and it would mean so much for us
to find Kathryn and/or her descendants. Nathan was about 5 yrs old give
or take when they were left on those steps and his sister was still young
enough to be left in a basket (probably a year or less) We have a birth
for Nathan saying born in 1903 but it is only a typed record from the
orphans court, not a regular birth certificate, so it may not be totally
correct. Any help with this will be greatly appreciated. thank you

Chicago area, Illinois, Cook
County
abt1907-1925
I'm looking for information on my grandmother. This is
where things get tricky. She always said her maiden name was Cordelia
Marimae Leasure. However, when I obtained her SS-5 application from
Social Security she wrote her maiden name was French. Cordelia Marimae
French. I recently found a Cordelia French as a boarder in a home. She
was 13 in 1920 which matches my grandmother's age at that time. Also
on her parents birthplaces was put U.S. Which makes you think she didnt
know her parents.
My grandmother spoke of growing up in the orphanage often, but was
somewhat of a secrative person about details. She did say that the
orphanage used to loan the children out to work on farms to help harvest
crops at harvesting time. On the 1920 census, the people she is boarding
with are farmers. This makes me think even more it is her. However, I
know nothing about the name of the orphanage other than it was in the
Chicago area. She later married my grandfather after meeting him in
Chicago. She worked in a dept store as an elevator operator. Possibly
Marshall Fields, since my grandfathers cousin worked in this store. IF
anyone has any ideas on where or who to find records with and how to
obtain them I would appreciate the information. Thank you

Orphanage in AR in or near
Mississippi county
1902 and up
. I am looking for the family of Johnnie Perkins Laxson who
was a barber by trade. He grew up in an orphan's home in AR until he
became sick with smallpox and an Aunt Vic (do not know her last name) was
called to come get him because they were afraid that he might die.
However, he did not die and at the age of 14 he went to work as a barber.
His mother died in childbirth and so did the baby boy who would have been
Johnnie's little brother. Mother's name was Maggie Laxson. Do
not know the father's name.
He lived in St. Louis, Algiers in New Orlesns, Blytheville, AR and Shaw,
MS. He was in a Sanatorium for TB in MS and was married to Vertie George
who died in 1934 and was buried in Ittabena, MS. Vertie George was born
in MO some where around Cape Guardia. Her mother's name was Sula and
herfather's name was William Herry George. William Henry George was
a Preacher at the Christian Church in Blytheville, Ar during the early
1900's
Johnnie Perkins Laxson and Vertie George had one child, Maxine Laxson
Bussey. Johnnie Perkins Laxson is buried in Magee, MS next to his second
wife Ned Lindsey who he met in the Sanatorium.
Johnnie Perkins Laxson was a 32-degree Mason and worshipful master of the
MaGee Lodge.
We can not locate the orphan's home because we believe it to have
burned. Is there anyone who knows of a home in this area at this time or
knows any connection the names above.

I am seeking any information concering my late fathers
family, birth records, place. he had a piece of paper that was destroyed
due to age and eventually crumbled to a pile of dust. the orphanage he
spent time in was demolished in the 30's. I do not know the name of
this place, only that it was somewher around Collingswood new jersey?? he
stated that his fathers name was Collie, mother name Rizzo under her name
cassato which could have been the person that delivered him.his birth
date was oct, 28 1923?? he ran away from the orphanage several times in
the late 20's. The last time he ran away they did not find him. so
there may be some sort of police records. there are no photos of him as a
child. maybe someone from the same orphanage remembers him?? or the the
name of the orphanage?? anything to give me a lead!!! thank you!! Mona

I am an orphan, 21yrs of age. I was adopted by Mr. Herchy
who once resided in the US when I was 8 yrs old. He financed my education
all this while till I got to Secondary School form 3. He passed away in

I have still not gained admission to the University since there is no
body to finance my education. When I came out of school I engaged myself
in selling farm produce like onions, cabbage, lettuce, etc. which I
planted myself. I used the money I had gotten to learn about computers
(Software). God being so good I secured a job after the six months
computer training at a business center where I typed letters and
designing using the computer. Then I enrolled with Sama Computer Training
and learnt computer Hardware (Repair & Maintenance). Currently I am
survivinng as a result of the jobs I get after repairing computers. I
want anybody who's been touched to help me in my education either
abroad or here in Ghana. Good will richly bless you for helping a
brilliant but needy child. Counting on your support. Thank you and God
richly bless U.

Pacific Protective Society
(Oakland California, Alameda County, 1932)
Looking for information on the Pacific Protective Society.
It is listed on my fathers birth certificate as the institution he was
born at. The address is listed as: 1218 East 21st Street, Oakland, Ca.
My fathers name was: Barry Vierra. He was born in October of 1932.
According to my fathers birth certificate - his father was: Paul Russ
(K.J.A.B. radion station/Belboa Floral Co both located in San Francisco).
His mother was: Hazel Vierra (housemaid located in Oakland California).
His baptism papers show a Pauline Green listed as his God mother (St.
Josephs Church Oakland). Information on Pauline would be helpful too -
maybe her family can give me information on Hazel, Paul, or where my
father was.

Secondly, I was a victim of child abuse so I knew my mother &
stepfather. I would love some information on a Marine, who was stationed
at Cherry Point, NC in 1959 who may have been involved with a Hilda Jean
- Loomis or Aldrich or Johnson...
My mother has told me the man's name on my birth certificate is not
my own. She is messed up as you can see. I am trying to also reach
siblings or aunts & uncles who may remember a little boy named bobby
loomis or bobby aldrich (me).
At around 40 I am trying to find myself by looking in my past but also I
have some medical issues I'd like to get some input on.
any help would be appreciated

*Kathleen and Marueen Jenson
*Gloria Cowan

*Frank,a big guy?
*Joey Duyche>spell?
*Twila and Linda I can see Their faces...Chambers They sang.
Also Mr. Driscall the Phys. Ed teacher And the Sat. morning

The sewing machine room that had the radio we snuck up to listen to while
ironing on Sat morning. Either Adell knew it and let us or we were
"getting away with it"! :)
Tussy deoderant. God we hated it!
The big bedroom for the 6 younger girls.
The single room for the "lucky" girl that had a chance at it!
There was a unit for older girls. Once you were in a certain grade you
could move there. Can't remember the name of it.! Began with a K?
The long tall steeple. The smell walking outside. I think it was the
laundry steam. The round playground merri- go -round that was out back
with the swings!
Also back there was a path that led to St. Joseph Home down the way. One
would stay there for a short time before they were moved to St.
Paul's.
Oh, the memories!
The chore of ringing the chappel bell.
Boy scouts and girl scouts coming on holidays to give to the
"orphans"!
Boy we made out like bandits! Fact was... we had it better there than
most would. Movies, Ballroom dancing, Swimming Pool!
There are so many more names and memories. I know I would remember if I
heard the names. I remember there was the Tues.night Ballroom dancing
lessons., Wed. & Sat. morning was swimming. And Friday movies! I even
remember some of the schedule!
These are memories that live in my mind.

My sister and I lived at St. Vincent's Childrens'
Home in Baltlimore, Maryland for a brief time (1961-1964)until our family
members could afford to bring us home. The old home is no longer in
downtown Baltimore. Quite a few years ago, it was moved to a location in
Baltimore County on Pot Springs Road, I believe.
I would like to know how I can get pictures and information about the old
home. Anyone have any ideas, in addition to writing to the current
administrator, about how I can research this? I live in Montana, and my
sister in Oregon, so we don't have local access to old courthouse or
land records.
Any information/ideas would be great. Thanks. Lois Anne

1to 2 years. not sure
I was in an orphanage for about 1 or 2 years. I have been
told it was in Jersey City, New Jersey. I do not know the name of it.
It may have been a catholic charities run place, not sure, but at one
time there was a carnival in the play yard and we children were watched
by two nuns.
The building was two or three stories. The boys slept in the main floor
and the girls on the top floor. The play yard was on a hill and there was
a chain link fence atop a concrete wall along a city street. There was
also a mounted policeman that rode by almost every day. He would stop
and talk to us.
I am tying to find out the name of this orphanage to trace my early life
history and possible find my birth family.
If anyone recognizes this orphanage from my brief description, and its
name, please email me. I was there in the early 50's.

Looking for Linster
cousins, Tennessee Poorhouse or Orphanage
Trying to find what happened to the children of my great
Uncle Will Linster from South Pittsburg, TN (Marion County). 1930 census
shows kids to be: John 12 yrs old, Belle 7 yrs old, William, Francis
& Virginia who was a baby in 1930. I was told the family was always
very poor and when the depression hit, no one knows where this family
went. Will's older brother Jack showed up in the Marion County
Poorhouse in 1920 but couldn't find the other Linsters. The kids may
have been placed in homes or taken from the parents. I think Uncle Wills
wifes name was Oma. If anyone knows this family, please contact me.

County/ Louisville, Kentucky, USA

I am looking for information re: my grandmother who, I am

(Jefferson county, I think) She was supposed to be around 7, her name at
the time was supposed to be Myrtle May Moore. She had an older (I think)
sister who was, I am told not sent to the orphanage. They were, I am
told, supposed to be inheriting some land which was rich with Pecan
Groves and that that may be why my grandmother was sent to the orphanage.
Her sister was: Emma Margaret Moore, her father was: Charles
Harold/Harould Moore and her mother was: Emma May Serrett/Sarrett-Moore.
I think she had a brother who was a junior to her father. I hope somebody
reading this has some information or says something to someone who has.

St. John's
Orphan's Asylum / aka St. John's Orphange/ St. John's
Home
1952-1958
My name John Bangert, a former resident or "pass
boy" from St. John's Orphan Asylum from 1952-1958. This home was
located at 49th Street and Wyalusing Ave. in West Philadelphia. I was
hoping to get a history or pictures from the Sisters of Saint Joseph,
archivist, who I contacted recently.
I was also hoping to find the names, biography and perhaps pictures of
the SSJ sisters at St. John's Home. Sr. Mary Eggberta, Sr. Mary, of
Consolation, Sr. Mary Finbarr, Sr. Mary David, Sr. Alice Patricia, Sr.
Helen Constance, Sr. Mary Daniel, Sr. St. Carthage, Sr. Cora Maria, Sr.
Mary Francis, Sr. Perpetua etc.. Are any of these Sisters still alive?
These were teaching nuns, and dormitory nuns from 1950's.
Several building are still in use by the present owners and we are
planning a 50 year reunion. Were you here? When and please tell us when.
In it hayday, we had over 250 boys located here. Do you remember
donations, day old cinnamon buns, Philadelphia Soft/ Hard Pretzels
Sticks. Any one interested, please contact us at (508) 432-0545.
We recently went on a two hour tour of the buildings in May 2003. We saw
"L" & "H" dormatory building. On the 3rd floor
where the nuns had their cells is now individually offices. We also saw
"B", "E", we saw the old group shower room and
originial toilets, and urinals are still there. "A", in the
main building the chapel, and the dining rooms, the catacomes are still
there where the coal bins were and the tunnels that linked all the
buildings. The old laundry building is also still there and "E"
&"C", dormatories and play rooms too. The Gym, poor, and
school are gone and replaced with low income housing on Westminister
Street side. Who remembers Mr. Funk "Pete" who would give out
TP when we would try to sneak into the outside bathroom for warmth in the
winters. Do you remember the swings and sliding board, will they are all
gone too. Do you remember going to PHILCO radio factory for Christmas
parties, with Sargent Bilco Phil Silvers?
I am told me that there is a bench or pew on which we waited outside the
Main office, it is now at the Motherhouse, does anyone have a digital
camera to snap a picture of two of this and other art effects from St.
John's Home Chapel?
We hope to be putting a web site together so we can share whatever photos
we get. Thank you, The Re-union Committee!

Duffy's Boys Home??
Suffork County NY; Islip Township
about 1890-about
1900 or so
My grandfather was suppose to be in a Catholic Home in NYC
called 'Duffy's". I found who I think is my grandfather on
the NY 1900 census in Suffork CO NY. He was a Protege of Edward A.
Duffy, a priest, but it looks like my grandfather was living at the home
of 'Father Duffy' and not in an Orphanage. Does anyone know
anything about a Catholic Orphanage for boys in NYC or the town of Islip
in Suffork county ny. Thanks Jackie

om
Princessdeedee,
I also was adopted from St. Michael's in 1952, I visited in Jan,
1969 and tried to obtain information, I was only 17 at the time so they
were not willing to give me anything. I was able to tour through the
orphanage and found it very strange to feel I was there 17 years prior.
It was run by I believe (Catholic Charities) probably the sisters of
Mercy (I remember the sisters in all white) I spoke to the mother
Superior. But no luck and I was unaware it was demolished in 73, but I
haven't been able to find any info on it either, If you have found
any info since your inquiry please notify me. I stuck on where my records
may be now. I suppose I should check with Catholic Charities they may
have retained the records. Well, good luck to you! Fellow adoptee born
1/26/52 in Morristown and adopted from St. Michael's orphanage in
Hopewell, NJ.
Sincerely,
Pat Gail

Concord, California - born at
Mount Diablo Hospital in 1963
1863 to
unknown
I am searching for my biological father. His name was put on
my original birth certificate as Glenn Melvin Baker. Some research on
him has been fruitful. He worked as a Dairyman for Storenetta Dairy and
lived at Point Arena, California in 1963 - the year I was born. I
believe that he remained in that general area for some time. He was an
Apache Indian born in Arizona with the alias of Chief Cochise Baker. He
would be 60-70 years old at this time and may have moved back to AZ??
Any help anyone can give me with my search to find him, whether he is
alive or not, will be greatly welcome. A.D.N.

St. John's and St.
Joseph's orphanage, utica, new york
1944-
1945?
Debra Dove, Feb 20
2002
I was at this orphanage in l944 and was
adopted in l945 by a family in Utica, New York. It is my understanding
that a staph infection swept the orphanage at that time; many infants
died and I in fact received the last rites of the church. I attended
Utica Catholic Academy on John St.in Utica. It had been a co-ed school
and when a new school was built for the boys in 1961 (Notre Dame) the
girls were sent (ironically) to finish high school in what had been St.
John's orphanage on Genesee St. I have vivid memories of that
forboding gothic hilltop buildling,overlooking Genesee St., it's
grandeur and beauty. I had an odd sense of having been there earlier. I
have tried to revisit but it has been turned into a rather exclusive
condominium (somewhat of a gated community). Please feel free to contact
me. I would love access to some of those records and perhaps could be
helpful to you. I live now in Rochester, New York, but most of my family
remain in Utica.

Life Line Rescue Mission,
Kansas City, Kansas
1914
I'm inquiring about my mother-in-law, now deceased, who
was adopted from the above orphanage in 1914. She was adopted by a couple
named Davis who lived around Hill City, Kansas. She was a baby at the
time. A handwritten card was given to her by her adoptive parents. The
card says: Aloweese Butcher, born in Windsor, Mo, Feb. 4, 1914. I have
original correspondence from a Mrs. Kate Coe from the Life Line Orphange.
It shows the address as being 1916 N. 3rd, Kansas City, Kansas. In 1982,
we contacted ALMA (Adoptees Liberty Movement Association), who said they
had received a letter in 1974 from a Ruth Zimmerman, who was looking for
a sister, born on Feb. 4, 1914 and adopted through Life Line Orphanage.
She said her sister's name was Aloise Russell, daughter of Nathan
Russell and Lora Williams Butcher. I could never find Mrs. Zimmerman,
whose address in 1974 was 5300 Clark Dr., Shawnee Mission, Ks. Anyone
with any information on this that can share, it would be greatly
appreciated.

Sacred Heart Orphanage, 180
Belgrove Drive,Kearny New Jersey
1940 to
1950
Hello All:
We share an experience that is special to us all not always plesant but
special. Me and my brother Joe DiGiesi were put in Sacred Heart Orphanage
in Kearny by our maternal grandparents. After some time it became normal.
Then after we were living again with grandparents it was strange to be on
the outside again "free" so to speak. I will always think of
the Orphanage as HOME for as long as I live whereever I live. There were
many boys from Newark there with us and many other brothers also. We had
a close kinship with all who were there.
The Nuns for the most part were caring except for the few hard cases. We
were always drawn back for Christmas eve Mass there. It was instinctive.
I went for a visit up to Monroe New York where we had a summer camp and
slept in my car to extend the stay. There is also a retirement home in
MonroeNY.there for the Sister of Charity who ran the show. I was glad to
see Sister Agnes she ran the whole orphanage and she must have been sent
by GOD to care for the about 100 to 150 boys there.I have a special place
in my heart for her. Any body there at that time from 1940 to 1950 drop
me a line. Wouls love to hear from you.
I'll be around
Best Regards
Anthony DiGiesi

her biological family. Her name was Mary Mole and she had 2 brothers,

very hard to read and some of the information is not consistent.
Any help would be appreciated or if anyone knows of anyone else that was

been found on a trash can lid in California (possibly San Diego)in 1920
and taken to an orphanage which she ran away from when she was 10 years
old. She also claimed to have no birth certificate.
Can anyone tell me what the practices where in that era for naming
foundlings? How would she have gotten a surname? Also would she have
been given a birth certificate?
Thank you for any help you could provide.

Uniontown, PA. The home was closing up and we were then adopted out to a

who came to school but lived at home. She used to bring sandwiches for

From the food handouts thru the fence from Camp Shanks german prisoners

approximate years. In those days we were all educated in the orphanage.
Everything happened right there, you rarely got out. Boys were separated
from girls, except in school class rooms. If you had a brother there,
you only got to them them once each month, briefly. It was strict but
fair if you stayed out of trouble If you acted out, it could be quite
rough. I got a great education that I am grateful for, but feel
extremely limited emotionally in my ability to cope with society. I did
have and raise 5 kids, and tried to overcompensate in my parenting as I
had no role model We were left on our own too much. Too many kids and
not enough adults. But I am alive. Are there any other Maryville Kids
out there. If so, write me at [email protected]
Bye, I am going home free now. Sharon

put up for adoption through
catholic social services in Pensacola FL
Baby Girl Born June 1958 at a Hospital in Pensacola FL
Birthmother may have been a nurse, and may have been from Mobile Alabama.
Hospital paperwork described the birthmother as having fair skin, blue
eyes,and dark hair (although this info may be incorrect. Birthmother
contacted Catholic charities on March 31,1958 and was described as being
"a very attractive, refined and well mannered young woman." It
was noted in the paperwork that the birthmother's sister came to be
with her after the birth, and left $20 for the agency, before they both
returned to their home state (most likely Alabama according to
paperwork). Please contact me if you can remeber anyone from that time,
or if you have any information at all. Thank You

Dear Sir or Madam, I live in Scotland, I'm writing to you in the hope
you can help me search for information on my father. I recently received
a letter from my birth mother telling me of him. He was stationed in the
UK in 1944. His name is Gayle (Though not sure of the spelling) Robinson
or Robertson, or a close derivative of those. He was born around 1914 -
1918 and he was raised in an orphanage in Pennsylvania, upon reaching
work age he worked as a miner prior to enlisting in the military. To help
me find out the history of my father, I am trying to identify his home
town or county. kindest regards, John Wastle

I am looking for Anna Guinnip. I found her name in the 1920
census for Harrison Township. It states that she was living with an
Esther VanWert. I believe that she could be my Aunt. She was 8 years old
at the time. My father's name is Charles Edward Gynnip (Guinnip) I am
not sure where either one of them wer born. I also found an Irene Guinnip
who died on June 26,1917. Exactly 2 months after my father was born. She
died in Westfield,Tioga County,Pennsylvania. My father claimed to have a
sister named Anna, who moved to Cincinnatti, Ohio and raised my sister
Beatrice V. Guinnip, born February 16, 1947. I believe that Irene could
be my Grandmother. Her funeral bill was rendered to a William Guinnip of
R.D., Westfield. Pennsylvania. My father claims to have been raised by an
Alvira Persing in Sabinsville,Pa. and having attended school in Harrison
Valley. Alvira Persing could be my great-grandmother.

hodge surname
I have a long story, please take time and read about this
puzzle that I'm trying to solve.
On my Dad's side of the family, I started with Dad's parents and
sisters, which I have never meet and they never meet me or my brother.
One of my puzzles is this:
My Dad kept in his wallet his SS card and the stub to the card. On the
stub he wrote his mother's maiden name: Mary Brown and then he had
Carl Hodge and Philadelphia. Something doesn't sound right with this.
Why would you write your parent's names and your place of birth?
I went to the SS office and they gave me this information about my
Dad's SS number:
Date Issued of the card is 11/1956 in Florida
Dad's name = Frank Carl Hodge
Parent's names are Mary Brown and Carl Hodge (Dad's SS number is
261-60-8971) Dad's DOB 1-25-1928 in Philadelphia, PA. DOD - May 1988
in Charleston, SC (I
knew my Dad all my life.)
I wrote for my Dad's birth certificate, but they had no record of
birth for the names I provided.
On my Mom and Dad's marriage certificate I have this:
Dad's parent's names are Bill and Irma Hodge living in Detroit,
MI.
Dad's address in 1956 on the marriage certificate is Sumter, SC.
Mom and Dad married in Lincoln, NC on May 17, 1956.
The story my Mom told me was that my dad did something to where his dad
was
going to turn my Dad in to the police, so they got into a fight and my
Dad's Dad kicked my Dad out of the house. Mom said Dad told her he
had gotten into a car wreck in his teens and was in hospital awhile. (I
don't know where.) All of this was in his teens.
My Dad was traveling with the fair at the time Mom and Dad met and
married. My Dad at one time worked were they took taxes out and that was
in Florida in 1956. Dad never worked anywhere else where he had taxes
took out. My Dad would either travel with the fair or had night clubs
here in Charleston, SC. All my Dad's clubs were in my Mom's name.
Dad couldn't or didn't want the drinking license in his name,
etc. Dad was good at covering his tracks. I do know one thing when
traveling with the fair back then everyone had Alabama tags because you
didn't need car insurance. As you see I have nothing to go on without
a birth certificate, etc.
Thank You, Linda Hodge Davis

The Francis Comfort Thomas
Orphans Home, 507 Cherry Street, Bartholomew Co, Indiana
6 weeks
I am a girl adoptee, born on July 29, 1955 and was placed for
adoption during September,1955. I was adopted by Thomas William
"Bill" of Milan, Indiana and Mary Gray Thompson, Milan,
Indiana, originally from Salem, Indiana. My adopted name was Nancy Lu
Thompson.
I have in my possession a letter from a woman by the name of Hazel McKain
who states that she hopes they (my adoptive parents) are happy with her
little sweetheart. I do not know if this woman is/was my biological
mother or if she was an employee of the orphanage (The Francis Comfort
Thomas Orphans Home, Bartholomew County Dept. of Public Welfare,
Columbus, Indiana) at that time. I am unable to find anything on Hazel
McKain. I would truly love to find my biological parents or siblings.
Hazel McKain mentions my adoptive father by his nickname "Bill"
so I know she knew him personally, not just as a prospective parent. My
adoptive parents had been trying to adopt a second child for at least 3
years prior to September, 1955. Their first child was a son, whom they
named Dale "Reed", adopted on April 24, 1952 (same day as his
birth, my adoptive mother told me) at the Milan, Indiana clinic. Dr.
William Warn of Milan, Indiana brought him to them that day. There were
adoption papers for my adopted brother, but no such papers were found for
me in my parents safety deposit box at the time of my mother's death
in 2001. Whenever my mother and I spoke about my adoption she being
visibly upset. (crying and shaking)
If you have any information in regard to my birth, adoption, heritage,
siblings, biological parents, etc. please contact me at [email protected].
Thank you.

when he was adopted.He doesn't remember his brothers and sisters
name.He was adopted by the Wuth family.They went back to adopt his
sister,but she was gone.I have found info on one of his brothers.His name
was Harry E Marsh. Jr.He died in April 2000.It doesn't look like he

Cincinnati, Ohio
early 1900s
I am seeking information about Joseph Miller (my great
grandfather)and his unknown brother. He was born Oct. 27, 1893 in Newark,
New Jersey. His father's name was Mitchell Miller and his
mother's name was Catherine (Mather or Mathers)Miller.He had a
brother, name unknown. Apparently Joseph's parents both died during a
flu epidemic around 1900, so Joseph and his brother were sent to a
Catholic Orphanage in Cincinnati, Ohio. Joseph eventually ran away from
the orphange and settled around Warren, Penn.

A Jewish orphange in San
Francisco, California
from approx 1920-
1938
My father and his two brothers were place in a Jewish
orphange when their mother was admitted to a hospital and their father
abandoned them. My father is now deceased as well as his two brothers. He
would never talk about those days and I would like to know about my
ancestors.
My father's name is: Gordon Ross Morehead and he was born 9/26/1917.
His brothers names are Stanley and Harry Morehead.
I believe that their mother's name is Ruby Morehead or Joy Ruby
Morehead and his father's name is Samuel Morehead.
I realize it is expensive to research your ancestors and I don't have
much money. Does anyone know about my relatives or how I can get started?
I did find a Jwish orphange in the Calif. listing but it didn't allow
me to look at anything except the year 1900? Thank you for your help.

1960-
1961
For years, I have been haunted by the memory of this
institution. My brother, Michael was 9 yrs. old, I was 5 yrs. old, my
sister Karen was 3 yrs. old and my brother John was just a little baby
when we were placed there. The boys and girls were seperated of course
and I only got brief glances of my older brother at meal times and at
church. I never saw my baby brother at all, except when my grandparents
would visit, then we all got to see each other. Before being placed there
, I had know idea what brutatity was. The abuse by the nuns was
atrocious. I and my siblings lived in fear every day. There's one nun
whom I will never forget. Her name was Sister Marie Philomenia. My sister
and I secretly called her Sister Marie Full of Mean. I could go on and on
about the barbaric treatment imposed on us by these alledged people of
God. I did have one saving grace while there, however. Her name was Beth.
I do believe she may have had a twin sister ( I can't remember for
sure but it does stick out in my memory for some reason). She was one of
the big girls, appox. 13 yrs. old. In the early evening before bed, she
would fuss over me, brush my hair and talk sweet to me. I have thought of
Beth many, many times over the years and have always loved her and held
her close to my heart. Beth, if by some miracle you read this, I want you
to know how grateful I was that you cared about me. You made a lasting
impression on my life. I will never forget you. Love Forever,
Linda

Tennessee
abt. 1900
We are trying to locate the orhanages our grandmother was in.
The story has it that my great-grandfather (Arthur William Bethell)
desserted my great-grandmother (Opal Hodges) and their 2 children. The
children were placed in an institution by their mother. My grandmother
said that at diffent times she was in 2 orphanages, one in Arkansas and
one in Tennessee (maybe Memphis).
She said that one was Catholic and one was Baptist. She was with her
brother. Their names were Asa Bethell and Sinia Belle Bethell. He was
about 18 months older, my grandmother's recollection of her birth
place and birthdate were sketchy. We think she was born in about 1896. At
different times she reported that she was born in Des Ark or Little Rock.
We are not sure how many years they were in an orphange, but in 1910 they
were living with their mother in El Paso, TX. We have a picture of a
building with children standing in front of it, but no identification.
Maybe someone would recognise the building. We would appreciate in
information or ideas. Thank you. Clarice

My name is Tristan. I am and have been an Orphan my entire
life. I am 25. I was raised in over 50 Fosterhomes, Boy's Homes and
orphanages all over Florida. I was a ward of the state from birth until
17. I joined the Navy as a way out. For the past 8 years I have traveled
the world. I've seen places and people most never will. I've done
well for myself finacially. But inside I feel everyday like I slip a
little further from everyone. I have this emptyness inside me that keeps
growing. I feel no connection to any other person I know now. I have no
family yet I think back to the hundreds of brothers and sisters I left
behind. I miss waking up in the middle of the night and knowing that I
would be ok because I could see 30 other beds next to me. I miss having
20 faces I could come home to. Most of all I miss having people who know
my joy and pain to share it with. I feel like the last of my kind. I
wonder if there are others who feel this way.

Martha Washington Home for
Unwed Mothers ( Wauwatosa, Wi.) & St. Vincent Orphanage Milw.
Wi.
1946
Born: September 23, 1946 Martha Washington Home and sent to
St Vincent De Paul Orphanage . Adopted (?) by a worker at the orphanage
(or taken) by a Rose D'Amato ( Topetzes)age 30 at the time. Was told
by my Aunt that she worked at the Orphanage and told her family that she
helped a friend deliver me, stayed with her for 3 monthes, she died, and
Rose took me home. Only identification I have is a baptismal certificate
with the names Rose Topetzes and a George Topetzes. My Mother ( ?) was
married to a Peter Topetzes briefly who passed away in 1942, four years
before I was born, but her name was Topetzes at the time of my birth
because she had not remarried. There was no George Topetzes. My Aunt
told me she couldn't understand HOW my Mother was able to adopt me at
all because she was single at the time of my birth, and my Aunt had tried
to adopt also and was married but told they didn't own a home so was
denied. My Mother has never owned a home in her life, and yet she was
able to adopt me?
The crazy part of this whole story is that my Mother did work at St.
Vincent's in Milwaukee, and told her Father this story, but says that
she is my real Mother, but she had to lie. Now I don't know
who's telling me the truth, my Mother or my Aunt. I am ready to do a
DNA but it costs $400.00 of which I don't have and I also think it
would kill my Mother if I even dared to betray her by not believing her
story.
HELP! How can I find anything out? The orphanage is gone and so is
Martha Washington Home. My Aunt has told me to question my Mother more,
but she is 88 with a bad heart and asthma. She raised me alone and it is
hard, as an only child to be persistantly " bugging her " for
details. Can anyone out there help me?
Thank you.

She would be in her 80s today. Her father was Edwin Clifford Splan and
her mother was Irene Splan. Does anyone know how I could find the old

July 1920
My mother was born in the home of Jack and Mabel Tennant in
July of 1920. The home was called Tennants Nursing Home and was located
on Chestnut Street in Alameda, CA. My mother was adopted by the
Cardinet family. The Cardinets were very active in what was then a large
French community in the San Francisco/Oakland area. The Tennant's
home burned down and there are no records. If anyone has any information
on this home, please let us know. My mother is 85 and still wonders
about her birth mother. All we know is that the birth mother was a young
girl who had become involved with an older French man who was very
prominent in this French community. Thank you.

located on 141 Oakland Ave, Uniontown, PA. My biological mother, placed
my twin brother John and I there a few days before her death. We were
placed there from June 1957 - May 1958. It was a very good loving home
to come from. WE were adopted out of the home and had a very wonderful
life.
There were other Children's Home in the Fayette County area. They
existed from 1915 - 1958.
I have alot of information I have been able to obtain since my research

Dear FRIEND,
I feel so delighted to write to you,
even thogh you do not know me in person. I believe
strongly in my hearts of heart that my writing yoo is
never a coincidence but an ordained will of the most
high God.
I am a young boy of seventheen years old and my
name is ANTHONY NWAPA, from Nigeria.
As i was going through your profile, i suddenly
developed a strange feelings of an intrutive
instruction urging me to write to you. I am an orpahan
boy, i live with an aged grand mother with my little
sister Vonita. Our parents died early last year and
since then life has been very hash on us.
And the worst thing that has happened to me now is
that the only sister i have in this world is now in
the hospital and her situaton is very bad that the
doctor said that she will have to go for a kidney
operation before she can live, and he also said that i
will have to deposite the sum of $700 US dollars but if you can give me
any amuont you can afford
equivalent to our own currency here in Nigeria. Before
they can carryout the operation.
As an orphan boy I don't know what to do. I have
contacted a lot of people i know, even local churches
in my area but they could'nt help.
Please FRIEND Help me and my sister Vonita. We are
very honest and innocent young souls who desperately
need your help despite the reputation of our country
we are very honest. Please FRIEND i don't want to loose
my only sister, help us all you can Mama before she
die in the hospital.
FRIEND If you help us God must surely bless you and
your family, the adoration and praises of his name
shall never seize from your mouth. FRIEND i promise to
be a source of joy to you.
God bless you FRIEND As we sincerely wait for your
heart warming reply to us.

Pittsburgh, PA
1938-1943?
Hi! I'm searching for anyone who might've known my
mother, Mary Lou WEBER, who lived at a Catholic orphanage in Pittsburgh,
PA from approximately 1938 (upon the death of her mother, who I believe
was named Bridget) until approximately 1943. She was 12 years old at the
time (I think) and was placed there by her father, George Byron Weber, as
were her siblings. I'm not sure how many siblings she had, but they
all would've been born between 1928-1938. I know one was named
Barbara; and there were two boys, George and Jack. If any of this sounds
familiar to you, or if you know how I can determine exactly which
orphanage my mother was in, please contact me. (Is this info available
via the census?) Any help would be appreciated. I would like to make
contact with aunts/uncles/cousins who might have stories to tell. My
mother has passed away. Thank you! Kate Siegel, [email protected] or

My grandmother and her sisters were there in the early to mid 20's.
She was born in 1917, she was there with 3 sisters one stayed with her
the other 2 worked there cooking i think.
My grandmothers name is Margret Mason her sisters were Beulah,
Beatrice,LilyMae Mason. Anything about this orphanage would be great.
They were there for a year or 2 I know they made her sleep in the bathtub
because she wet the bed.She was very small for her age. This place did
not close until the 70's maybe. I went there as a child but remember
very little. Thanks!!

Pennsylvania
I doing research on a man from Scotland, here's how his
letter of request reads.
I live in Scotland, I am a warbabe from WWII.
A few years back I received a letter from my birth mother, she thought
she was going to die so wrote to me telling me of my father. I am
writing to you in the hope you can find where my father was raised, from
there the Military Records in NPRC at St. Louis, should be able to help
further.
My birth mother was already married when she met my father, I was adopted
and she went back to her husband. She is now in her 80's so her
memory is not what it once was.
She told me my father's name was Gayle (Not sure of Corredt
Spelling.) Robertson or Robinson or something similar. He was born
around 1914 - 1918, never knew his parents, raised in an orphanage
somewhere in Pennsylvania, became a miner then enlisted. He had a number
of service stripes, so I think he may only have been a miner for a few
years, until he was old enough to enlist.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

St. Micharl's Children's Home, Hopewell,
N.J.
1967 to 1972
I volunteered at St. Michaels from approximately 1967 to
1971 and was assigned toi the nursery. I worked with Sister Alphonsus.
There were no newborns at that time but infants and toddlers. I remember
some names of the children and can see their faces like it was yesterday.
I remember Sr. Alphonsus telling me that the orphanage was going to close
and how worried she was about the children in the nursery. Some of the
children were handicapped. She told me that unless they were adopted
soon, they would be sent to state instutations which was a horrifying
thought to both of us.
I would like to locate some of these children and possibly Sr. Alphonsus.
I do not remember the Order of Nuns there. I do remember that Sr.
Alphonsus was in white as opposed to the nuns with the older children in
black habits.

St. Thomas Catholic Orphanage,
Lincoln, Nebraska
1954-1955
I am looking for Diane and Terry, my little girlfriends at
St. Thomas in Lincoln Nebraska during 1954 and 1955. Diane was an artist
even that young and I remember Terry had a grandmother she went to visit.
We were six or seven years old, Diane was maybe eight. If any one knows
of any person at Saint Thomas in the mid-1950's I would like to hear
from them. My name was Linda Hayes at that time and my brother Wayne was
also at St. Thomas. The place has been gone for quite a while. But
everytime I drive by what used to be an orphanage out in the middle of
wheat fields on a gravel road--now there are townhouses and a mall--and I
remember among other things like hearing another child crying in the
night, the roses out front, the jungle gym I got my tongue stuck on in
the cold, the wild rides down the fire escape, Roy and his brothers, and
Monica, the daughter of the laundry woman. I've always wondered what
happened to the children with whom I shared two years of my life (and
mass six days a week).
P.S. I'm not catholic anymore.

THAT CHILD. I WAS ALWAYS TOLD WHEN I NEEDED SOMETHING AS A TEENAGER GO
GET A JOB.
I FEEL FOR ALL ADOPTED KIDS AND KIDS THAT HAVE TO FEND FOR THEMSELVES.
PEOPLE MAKE MISTAKES AND WE PAY FOR IT. ITS ALONELY WORLD WITH NO ONE FOR
SUPPORT AND HELP.
I USED TO SEE OTHER KIDS, WHO WERE DADDY LITTLE GIRL AND WONDER WHY I
WASNT TREATED THAT WAY, BUT I KNEW I HAD ANOTHER DAD OUT THERE AND NOT
WONDERING WHY HE DIDNT WANT ME.
IM NOT AGAINST ABORTION, LET CHILDREN BE BROUGHT INTO THE WORLD LOVED BY
THE ONE WHO HAS THEM. NOT THAT THEY WERE A MISTAKE AND LOOK FOR A
SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM

St. Mary's Orphanage in
Roland Park, Baltimore, MD
1935?
My mother was there, probably in the 1930's. We are
trying to find out some information about her childhood. She passed away
6 years ago.
ANY information, even just about the orphanage would be very helpful.
Blessings.

MY MOST UNFORGETTABLE CHARACTER
If I had to choose just one person who has affected my life more than any
other individual, it would have to be Mayme Winters or "Mother
Winters," as we called her at the orphanage.
I am not exactly sure about her age, but when I first met her, I was
about 5, so I guess she would have been in her mid to upper �30s. She was
the Superintendent of Northeast Children's Receiving Home or as I
call it, "The Children's Home Society Orphanage" located in
Jacksonville, Florida.
I can honestly say that I have never met a more evil, vile, person in all
my life. Even when making that statement, I still feel it is an
understatement. This woman cared about nothing on the face of God's
green earth, except herself and her position in the organization. She was
mean, hard, depraved and very vindictive.
With complete honesty, I can also say that I never saw one single
instance where Mother Winters ever held, hugged or cared for a child in a
loving manner, other than for her own sexual needs and desires.
I cannot count the number of lives she destroyed over the 11 years I knew
her. For even the slightest infraction, such as climbing a tree or riding
a bicycle without permission, a child was hauled away. Some were taken to
the juvenile hall and some sent to the reform school, until their 18th
birthday.
This woman was absolutely the worse of the worst. She earned that title
being an individual, who made children feel they owed her, simply because
of the care they were receiving. She used her position as a tool to get
want she wanted, that being respect and admiration by those who held
power and authority within the community. She did not care about the
children themselves or their welfare. She did not care about a child�s
age, his or her needs or what the consequences might be later on in the
child�s life.
One statement is from a woman whom I believe committed suicide last year,
as the direct result of what Mrs. Winters did to her as a young girl.
Other statements given to me last year, also tell of several house
parents who molested children for more than three years, while living in
both the girls and boys dormitories.
Let there be no doubt, Mrs. Winters was very professional in the
performance of her duties. She was very neat and she was a very tidy
individual. There was a demeanor about her that she exhibited, which
would totally convince the authorities that she was 100 per cent correct
in her accusations against the children. This woman learned how to lie
very well by using just a little piece of the truth as the basis to
substantiate her own lies.
The only thing that really mattered to her was that the well-oiled
machine kept operating at a constant and steady pace. No one, not a
teacher, minister, house parent, policeman or child, could throw a wrench
into the perfectly operating machine she had created.
Her measures of strict control and absolute power worked very well for
many years. However, when the children began to mature, she allowed no
room for growth. It never occurred to her that a child�s thoughts,
actions and decision-making abilities also matured as he or she grew.
This process is considered normal by parents who have children. These
changes scared her and she viewed them as major trouble for her machine.
The older children were as quickly as possible, deposited in the criminal
justice system.
In one particular instance, a young girl was abused for such a long
period that now, as an adult living in Jacksonville, she only leaves her
apartment to purchase groceries and see her doctor. Other than leaving
for those two reasons, she has had no social life, whatsoever. The
children's home had placed her in a foster home. She reported to The
Children's Home Society that the foster family was molesting her. She
knew she was only there as a gift to their son for his personal pleasure.
On one occasion, the family actually returned her to the Children's
Home Society for one two-week period. The foster family was going on
vacation and did not want the expense of taking her with them. When she
reported what was happening to her, the Children's Home staff told
her she had best "keep her damn mouth shut" and that she was
"not going to ruin their fine record of family placements." The
girl was made to return to that family, where she remained for another
two years.
I can tell you this for a fact. I spent several years (two terms) in the
Florida School for Boys Reform School in Marianna, all because of Mrs.
Mayme Winters and her lies. I also spent several years in the federal
prison system during the late �60s. I have never (and I repeat) I have
never met a jail or prison guard who could hold a candle to �Mrs.
Winters.�
"Mother Winters," as we were required to address her, would
make us take off our clothes and stand naked, while she touched our
private parts. Many times, we boys just snickered, laughed and giggled.
To her, it was just a playful game.
Did we know that it would leave permanent scars on our memories? What
sort of sick perverted creature would take pleasure in humiliating
children? You would think that when someone is molesting a child, he or
she would at least be smart enough to be kind. Her actions were designed
to humiliate, demean and shame her small victims.
I was just a little boy at that time and I did not really understand what
molestation meant. As far as I knew, I was just standing there following
the directions of an adult. Besides, what grownup would do something that
they might be sent to jail for? Therefore, whatever Mother Winters was
doing to us had to be a �right thing.�
It is amazing to me, how I saw absolutely nothing wrong, when ordered by
this woman to take off my clothes. I would just stand there with my
little pants down around my ankles, while she did whatever it was she
wanted to do. All along, I only thought she could get into trouble for
slapping me across the face or on the buttocks.
After awhile, most of the boys did not even bother to talk about what was
happening to them. I guess, because being �played with� became a normal
thing to all of us. After a few years, a secretive silence seemed to set
in and no one openly talked about what was happening. Yet, sex became so
impersonal that many of the boys had masturbation contests to see who
could ejaculate the fastest. Pleasuring ones self by any means to achieve
orgasm became something enjoyable.
For sure, we will never forget what Mother Winters did to us. Those days
will be remembered forever and not in a pleasant way either.
What Mother Winter took from us can never be replaced. Many children,
both boys and girls, lost their childhood. We lost our innocence forever.
We have lost our ability to trust. We will never know the meaning of
giving love and worse yet, the ability to receive love.
Yes, Mother Winter, if I had to choose the one person in my life who made
the greatest impact on me, it would have to be you. I will not go so far
as to say that I hope you rot in hell. I will leave that decision up to
God himself.

Any orphanage in Cleveland,
Ohio and surrounding areas
1918-
1930
Would like to find information on Charles Anthony Semprich,
Anthony William Semprich and Jane Semprich who were abandoned and placed
in orphanages in and around Cuyahoga County in Cleveland, Ohio between
the years 1918-1930. They were all babies at the time 6,4,and 2. Parents
were John Semprich and Mary. Grandmother Mary died during the 1918 Flu
Epidemic and John just up and left the babies never to be heard from
again. My grandmother's maiden name was Przysbylski and our last name
could have been spelled Semprowicz, Semproch, Semprock.
My dad Charles and Jane were born in Cleveland, Ohio and Uncle Andy born
in Rockville or New Haven Connecticut. Grandparents only stayed in
Connecticutt for a year and then moved back to Cleveland. My grandfather
eventually married shortly after the death of my grandmother. The babies
were forgotten and eventually ended up in the care of the state. We have
no information for the years that are missing. We don't even know the
names of the orphanges where they could have been. So if anyone remembers
them or had any contact at the time with them or could tell me names of
orphanges in the Cleveland area at the time it would be so greatly
appreciated. The years again are 1918-1930. Hoping to hear from
someone,Please

Pacific Protective
Society
1933
Looking for any information on a baby boy born 9/7/1933 at or
through the auspices of the Pacific Protective Society facility in
Oakland, CA to my mother, Elizabeth (Betty) Borland (age 18) and
(possibly) to George Freeman (age 20), both from Sacramento, CA. The baby
was named Robert Leland Borland. On the birth certificate, the father
named is listed as "dead." But he may NOT be the father.
On MY birth certificate 8 years later (1941), it is notated that a
previous child had been born alive but "is now dead." All other
records found indicate the birth but no death information. There is a
possibility the baby was adopted out by the "Society" and the
rest done to conceal the adoption for future inquiries. If you have any
information regarding this, your response would be greatly appreciated.

our mother to St. Vincent's in West Philly. I was later sent to St.
John's on Wyalusing Ave. in West Philly. The years there from 1943
to 1948 are just a blur. Mostly not too good memories. In 1948 I was
sent to St. Joe's or "The Hut" as we called it. Some good
memories with a bunch of great guys. John DiGiacomo, Ed O'Mally,
Billy Watson, Joe Klein just to name a few. If any of you guys are out
there, e-mail me @ [email protected]. Would love to reminiece about

Hello
My name is Reinhold. I just want to say that I never dreamed that I
would ever find others who had lived at St Michaels Orphange Hopewell New
Jersey. I lived there around 1959-1962. The pain I had in my heart have
to live in a place like that is beyond words. I hope that all the
children had found a family to love them. I so much would love to hear
from others who have gone through the same pain. I do think that the
healing can start if we can start to talk to each other about the life we
once shared by living in a place such as this

Hi,
I grew up in St. Joseph Hall, 735 Willoughby Ave. B'klyn., N.Y..
Every Summer we went to camp at St. Joseph's Villa in Shoreham,
N.Y.(Long Island). I still see the "FISH-TAIL CHURCH" when I
return to Shoreham Beach. I have fond memories & would like to
connect with other girls (now Women) from Joey's. I was using the
name Carmen Lorenzo at that time. My two sisters were there too. If
anyone wants to contact me feel free to do so.
I would love to attend a REUNION if there will be on soon.
I remember meeting Billy Ryan a guy who worked at the camp every Summer.
I saw him in 1992 at Shoreham. He married a teacher. I also saw a few
"Sisters of Charity, St. Vincent De Paul Order" on the beach.
They remembered me & called me a "Homing Pidgeon" lal...
There are apartment houses where St. Joseph Hall use to be but the
"Stone Wall" is still there.
I have soooooooooo many membries to share with anyone from Joey's. I
lived there from 1953 to 1971. My email address is
[email protected] Hope to connect soon.

For years, I have been haunted by the
memory of this institution. My brother, Michael was 9 yrs. old, I was 5
yrs. old, my sister Karen was 3 yrs. old and my brother John was just a
little baby when we were placed there. The boys and girls were separated
of course and I only got brief glances of my older brother at meal times
and at church. I never saw my baby brother at all, except when my
grandparents would visit, then we all got to see each other. Before being
placed there , I had no idea what brutatity was. The abuse by the nuns
was atrocious. I and my siblings lived in fear every day. There's one
nun whom I will never forget. Her name was Sister Marie Philomenia. My
sister and I secretly called her Sister Marie Full of Mean. I could go on
and on about the barbaric treatment imposed on us by these alledged
people of God. I did have one saving grace while there, however. Her name
was Beth. I do believe she may have had a twin sister ( I can't
remember for sure but it does stick out in my memory for some reason).
She was one of the big girls, appox. 13 yrs. old. In the early evening
before bed, she would fuss over me, brush my hair and talk sweet to me. I
have thought of Beth many, many times over the years and have always
loved her and held her close to my heart. Beth, if by some miracle you
read this, I want you to know how grateful I was that you cared about me.
You made a lasting impression on my life. I will never forget you. Love
Forever, Linda

1948 -
1952
Looking for anyone who was with me and my 3 brothers & 1
sister at the Brook Farm Home in West Roxbury Massachusetts during 1948
through 1952.
It was a group foster home, 10, 15, 20 kids? I don't remember. It was
run by the Lutheran Church, but in charge of daily operations were Eva
& Henry Kogal with several live in adult helpers.
I was 5 when I first arrived there. My siblings names were: Edward,
Janet, Paul, Walter and me Ken.
I remember names like, Aunt Jane, Uncle John, Jean Stewart, Paul Stewart,
Laurie, Pip, Kippy & others that escape me right now.
I found the whole experience pleasant, no horror stories here. My older
brother & sister report the same.
I hope someone from that period at Brook Farm Home will read this. Hope
also you will e-mail me.

Reaching back through
the mist of Lost innocence
Where is this
beginning?
Here, I am revealing some long held memories of trusting an established
belief system and finally realizing that there were some truely evil
individuals, responsible for and in assisting in the development and well
being of young children.
I was actually 'raised', in the Orphanege from a baby till two
months past my eleventh birthday in 1963.........That was just after, I
was taken by a man named Mr Schaffer, to the American Musuem of Natural
History in New York City, to establish my ethnicity by an anthropolgist
named Dr. Shapiro.
He determined that I should be considered 'legally white' and
this 'solved ' a recurring problem of not being adopted by a
white family. Prior to this anthroprologocal ethnic assay, the Mother
Surperior would advise prospectiove adopting families of my questionable
ethnic background.
As a result of my ethnic 'purity' label, I was placed with an
italian catholic family with there own agenda. After they abused, beat
and humiliated me. They acused me of stealing 5 dollars and beat me
viciously, which left me mistrusting and physically scared me. They
successfully sired a child of there own; and I was shuttled off to a NJ
state half-way house in Burlington, NJ. As you might know from your own
personal this is the proverbial tip of that deceitful Iceberg of Life.
I am working at facing my memories and perhaps this will help others to
see that these things are worse than fiction...More will be revealed as I
become enabled by further thought.

Hi girls
I also was raised at ST.Joe's. I was a resident for 14yrs. I even
shared a bedroom with Kathy Danchak at one time. My name then was Lillian
Feliciano. I left to go live with my father in coney island with my
younger sister Milagros Feliciano. I am 53 now and had 6 kids(all grown
up now)and I now live in Florida. My sister Millie still lives in Bklyn.
and my other sister Socorra who also was raised in ST. Joe's lives in
Puerto Rico. Socorra's last name was Rivera at that time she was
married and had 2 kids. Millie never married and had 4 kids. I did get
married and had 3 girls and 3 boys My husband passed away 7 years ago so
I have a lot of time to think about my times at St.Joe's and the
girls I grew up with. I often wonder whats become of them. I have
recently tried to get in tough to find out that the home was torn down
and replaced with apartment buildings. I would love to get in touch with
my Best friens Regina Lutz other wise known as Regina Alamieda(her
married name) anyone that wants to keep in touch can reach me at my E
mail address [email protected] Take care it's good to see that
we can still reminiss with eachother and that we are not alone.

I was at the home from 1956 to 1970 in sister Dian's group was the
last group that I was placed in I was 16 yrs. when I left with my younger
sister to go live with my father. I also remember the summers we went to
SHOREHAM in long island. The beautiful times on the beach,and every
sunday when our families would come down to visit us. we stayed in
cottages with at least 12 girls to each cottage with a counselor that
slept at the end of the cottage,and a nun in the small room with her own
bathroom,while we all managed to share one. and how we used to eat in the
main building for lunch and dinners. The races we had and games we
played. Movies we would see. And how some of us would walk to Little
Flower(another home in long island)along the beach and the summer dances
when boys were invited.camping,swimming. I remember it all. I look back
on my childhood now and I realise that we kids at St. Joe's had it
better then most of the kids on the outside. We got to go to the
circuis,the ice capades,madison squar garden for the shows,movies and
more. Many of the kids that I met on the outside never went to any of
these placeses except the movies. Thank god for St. Joseph and the nuns
and the many organizations that helped keep them going for so many years
and helped so many children. Without them who knows how many of us kids
would be alive today, or even have gotten a decent education.

cunningham orphanage
Ill
2
I am looking for Anyone that may have any info about a baby
girl Possibly with the ZIKE name being put in cunningham orphanage in
Illinois. She was born in 1938 and adopted at age 3 so was a baby when
put in orphanage. She was adopted at age 3 by Nelson and Vera Barger of
Urbana Ill. The baby ZIKE was took from Mattoon Illinois ( Coles
County)when took to orphanage. Name was possibly LINDA LOU ZIKE at birth.
Am looking for relatives. This Orphanage no longer exsists, does any one
know how I could obtain records from there ?

St Michael's
I am trying to find anyone who remembers a James Raymond or
Mary Catherine Lane. They were placed in this orphanage until a family
member realized they were there and sent them a way to escape (so to
speak). My father has passed away but the stories he would tell regarding
the treatment of children was awful. He would always talk about one nun
that he would have loved to have come across when he got older just to
prove he made something of himself. He said they were belittled and
abused and that people on the outside knew of these events and did
nothing. I want to know why the records of the children placed there
cannot be released to families. These people who suffered at the hands of
the people who were supposed to be a firm believer in God deserve to be
revealed to the public. If you abuse your child today you are on the
front page of the news. Why should these people be remembered as good
people when they were nothing more than a place to abuse and emotionally
terrorize children. I have looked on every website and like always when
there is a cover up there is no information to be found. I would
appreciate any information I could recieve. My father did reveal that he
had several friends and he died at age 73 in 2000. I don't know if
anybody can help but anything is worth a try. He was the greatest person
I knew and my life was the best thanks to him. This is for him. He faced
everyday with a laugh and courage but the pain he suffered should never
have happened. He was approximately 10 or so when he went in and I
don't know how many years he was there. Thank you.

Hi Bonnie, I really didn't
exspect to hear back from anybody so soon. I'm glad that I did.
It's good to hear from you. I miss those days back at St. Joes too. I
had good times and bad times their. I prefer to think of the good times.
My only real bad times were when sister Diane was in charged of the high
school division and when she took over the whole place. She ran it down
to the ground(thats just my opinion). I still can't believe that they
closed the place down. I remember Rosita Bourbon and her sister Lillian
Bourbon, Debbra Hodges, Caemen Flores, Mary Balinni, Maria Gonzoles,
Nellie Gonzoles, Carmen Perez, LuLu Lorenzo, Bernidett Petters, Martha
and Anna Mureal, Terry Gillis and lots more I just can't think of all
their names right now, other wise I'd be going on and on forever. So
Bonnie hows life been treating you? I hope good. Its been pretty fair to
me. I never had to really work hard. I Live hear in sunny Florida. Have
my own home(one family) 2 cars and still 2 sons living with me. I guess
that a gods send because then I really be alone. My oldest girl Jessica
lives in bufflo NY and my other 2 girls live in the state of Georga, and
my youngest boy lives hear in Tampa Fl. I miss them very much. My
youngest is 22yrs. and the oldest is 34yrs. Do you have any kids? I would
like to know whats happen to you guys and how life had been. I know that
when I left the home I had a hard time makeing friends. I was called the
white puerto rican girl, because I couldent speak spanish and they said
that I acted like a white girl. I lived in puerto rico for a year and
learned to speak spanish so that I could talk to my mother who
coulden't speak english. Now I hardly get to speakl spanish. Not
many spanish families hear where I live. My kids dont speak spanish but
they understand a little. and thats because when my husband and I fought
we did it in spanish so they wouldn't know what we were fighting
about.

I am looking for any one who was connected to St. Mary's
Home for Girls between 1934 and 1948. The girls who were living there at
that time were called, "The Old Girls" because they were the
first group of girls to be in St. Mary's. My Mother, Florence Marie
Wells McKenzie was one of "The Old Girls" and I would love to
know if anyone has any pictures of my mother as a child or could share
any memories of her with me. She passed away on June 25, 2005. Mom never
spoke about the home much but she did mention several names over the
years: Tay Brown - Sister Leona - Rosie Sullivan - Myrt Sullivan - Gloria
(married name Shell). I would love to hear from anyone who may have spent
time with my Mother or can share any information they have. Please feel
free to e-mail me if you would like to share some stories or have photos.

Hi Debra,
I was reading on of your letters and yes I remember Elise Vasquez, (tall
skinny feckles on her nose, she also had an older sister but I can't
remember her name) Evelyn and Elise Moreno (sisters) they also had a
little sister who's name is Lillian Moreno, (who was at the home),
Maria and Nellie Gonzales (sisters), Mary Belini, Debra Hodges, Angie, I
remember a kathy but I am not sure if it's your sister. Me and my
sister Margie always hunged out with Elise Vasquez, Evelyn Moreno, Elise
Moreno and Nellie Gonzales. In the late 80s early 90s I use to bump into
Nellie Gonzales. At the time she was working in a meat market where she
and I lived. Her children was going to the same school as my children. As
a matte of fact when her daughter became a teenager she was hanging out
with my son (Hector) who is now 28 years old. I have sad news to tell you
but Evelyn Moreno passed away. Elise her I hear stuck up sister married a
wealthy man and lives in Long Island. I heard that Evelyn used to call
her but she did not want to bother with her. Sad, right.
I moved out of my old neighborhood and lost contact with Nellie.
She's the one who told me that Shoreham was going to be a nuclear
plant. I would like to hear from you to talk about the times in the home.
PS for those who is reading this my name is Carmen Medina and my sisters
name are Margie Medina, Migdalia Medina and Angie Medina.

To Carmen Lorenzo
I was reading your e-mail to Lillian Feliciano and was laughing because I
do remember when naming the mountains. Chocolate mountain lead to the
camping site. When we went camping we would run down at night and go
swimming while the counselors made out. It was lots of fun. I also
remember the big rock. we use to climb it. One day we discover by the
wooded area of the beach some steps made of log a group of us and the
counselor went up to discover a house a lady came out and offered us
water. We laughed because she was an elderly lady and we was saying that
she look like a witch. I remember the softball area, at the end it had a
change with a sign saying keep out. That's where we use to go through
to go camping and if you kept going the trail would lead you to the road
where the entrance to Shoreham is.
Me and my sisters were at the home from 1963-1970.
My name is Carmen Medina and my sisters name are Margie Medina, Migdalia
Medina Angie Medina.
Hope to hear from you ASAP.
Hi, Me and my sisters also grew up in St. Joseph Hall and have fond
memories. I do remember Shoreham and it was fun. You mentioned a Billy. I
remember a counselor name Chickie who had a brother Billy and they had a
house down the road near the entrance of Shoreham. I also remember the
church on the small hill near the road. right next to cottage 9 and 10.
Boy do I have so many memories. We are like family because even though we
talk to people about our experience at the home, no one will understand
more than us. That's one thing we all have in common. I would like to
get together with Delia, Kathy, Debra and you and your sisters.
My name is Carmen Medina and my sisters name are Margie Medina, Migdalia
Medina and Angie Medina
I like to hear from you soon.
Hope this is what you meant.

St Dominic's Orphanage

1926 - 1943
I am hoping that someone who may have been in St.
Dominic's between 1926 & 1943 will email me. My mother and her 3
siblings were all brought there by their father who didn't speak
english and couldn't provide for them any longer. Their mother was
sick with TB and passed away shortly after they were admitted into St.
Dominic's. I never met anyone from my mother's side of the
family and was told by her that after her mother died, relatives raised
them. It was a lie that I couldn't understand until I read some of
the postings about that place and the cruel inhumane treatment that was
given. I managed to trace down a cousin in NY that was told a few more
things by her mother, my mother's sister, so I wrote to St
Dominic's and they mailed me back 33 pages of information on all of
them. I know this was a long time ago, but if there is anyone that was
there during that time or maybe had a parent that was there, maybe we
could share some thoughts. I just need someone to talk to about this and
maybe get some closure on it. The names of the people in age order are:
Mary, Helen (my mom), Stanley, & Sophie. Hope to hear from
somebody.

SISTER
I was born, I think, June 12, 1946. I
grew up in Cabin John/Glen Echo, Maryland. At first, at age 15, I
thought I had found all the information but I was wrong. I have memories
of being in what seems to be like an orphanage. It was like out of the
westerns on tv. I can recall looking at this lady who is holding a child
who looks like me. I look past them and can see at the top of the stairs
a hallway that goes to the left and to the right. I can also see doors
to rooms.
At the bottom of the stairs there is a hallway to the left and the right
and that is it. The only information I have about my sister is that her
name is Linda. I believe we are twins. I weighed 2 lbs and 3 oz at
birth and was born at 1:23 a.m. I remember seeing my birth record #
which is 08498.
If you were born between 1945-47 and your name is Linda. If you have
questions about your background and you believe you have a twin, please
contact me. You may contact me for a photo but please, if you have a
photo of yourself, go ahead and send it first. I am Cherokee/Scot-
Irish/Jewish.

Ave
I don't know if you remember me (Eileen
Markoe). My sister's (Debbie and Dana)and I were in St. Jospeh's
from 1957-1965. Late this afternoon I was going for a walk and passed a
building that always reminds me of St. Joseph Hall, and for the first
time I thought, 'why not see if I can find some photos of St.
Joseph's on the internet.' Well, much to my surprise I came
across this website. I, too, have wondered what happened to the people
that I had grown up with. What ever became of Mary Ryan, Janice
Malichuck, Rosa Bourbon, Rosita Lopez, Marilyn Webb, Irma Alverez and all
the people I shared my childhood with? I am now 57 years old, married to
a German and living in Germany. It was so interesting to read the
memories of the woman that had lived at St. Joseph's as children. I
surely remember Shoreham, Long Island fondly with the Chocolate, Vanilla
and Strawberry mountains. Funny isn't it, when one is a child a
puddle can look like a lake, or a hill a mountain. And as walked passed
this building today that reminds me of my childhood, I wondered if St.
Joseph's was really as big as my inner child's
memory...

Hi Eileen, I dont remember you, but I
remember some of the girls that you mentioned in your e-mail on this
sight. Most of the girls that left St. Joey's have gone on with their
lives and chose not to look back. But some of us like to chat or leave
messages on this sight for each other. Rosita Bourbon the last time was
ages ago that I talked to her. She was living with her father and
daughter in the Bronx and doing well. But that was more then 25yrs. ago.
I don't know or heard from any of the other girls you mentioned in
your e-mail. I don't think that most of them even know about this web
cite. But we are all looking for some old friends from the home. Keep
trying you might get a bite from someone you do know. I found this cite
purly by chance, and I'm sure many more orphans will. Give my best to
your sisters they might remember me and my sisters, or maybe not. It
dosen't really matter dose it. Thanks for the info on the photoes
I'm shur that many of the girls will be in touch with Mr. McNamara.
Hope you and your family are doing well. God bless

My two GreatUncles and one Great Aunt,were bought up by Dr
Barnados, following the death of their father and, possibly,their mother,
in 1915. I,understand,they were kept as a family unit, throughout the
whole time. They were,also, "three little steps" - only a very
short period of time seperated the eldest from the youngest. I remember
them well,as adults from my own childhood days. Now, I would like to find
out a little more of their "history", to include in my own
family research.They were born after 1905 but before 1914, in St Ives
Huntindonshire (now Cambs,)
Their names are as follows - WILIAM LINCOLN aka Billy
ROBERT LINCOLN " Bobby
ELIZABETH LINCOLN " Betty
Is there anyone out there who has any information especially their

Well I finally get to find this
website by accident. I am not computer literate, but I went into search
and found this site. My name is Yasmin Medina and my sisters name are
Maria Medina and Becky Medina.I remember most of you expecially Lillian
and Debbie Danchak. I also have fond memories of St.Joes. My sister Maria
has a better memory than me . My sister Becky is a singer in California
and she does impersonations in Las Vegas. I live here in Miami Florida, I
work for the School Board and my sister Maria Medina is living in
Brooklyn N.Y. I want to hear fromall of you. I rememeber Sister Diana
when I caught her without her veil. We used to play jokes all the time. I
remember singing church songs and playing the guitar in church most
mornings. I kissed my first boy out side in the back of the building,
remember the bowling ally and the candy machines that never worked. lol.
I remember the dances when we had to leave our shoes in the middle of the
floor and the boys would pick the shoe then they had to dance with that
girl. I am not ashamed to say that I was brought up in the home. The only
thing I regret was that I was not street smart at the time. We were so
isolated that when we finally did come out of the home at the age that we
did. The outside world was hard to adjust too. I'll write more later,
I just want to make sure you guys remembered me. God Bless

Hi Debbie, Lillian Carmen Lorenzo
I am writting in behalf of my sister Maria Medina. She was so happy when
I told her about finding you guys on the web. She asked me to give her e-
mail address to who ever wants to get in contact with her. If anyone has
information on Linda Bachman and Rebecca Smart she would like to hear
from you. She also told me to tell Carmen Lorenzo she remembers you real
well. My sisters and I have fond memories of the home. I am who I am
because of my upbringing.We must all praise god everyday of our lives for
the love he instilled in us and the way we were brought up. I learned not
to have hate in me and learned to truly love and appreciate life to its
fullest. Sometimes I get angry with someone and want to leash out at
them, but then I remember what I was taught in the home. We were all
special in gods eyes and still are. We must never look back and regret
what happened or why were we put there. Everything happens in life for a
reason, and I know now that if I was not raised in the home, I could of
turned out with a child at a young age or been on drugs or been in jail.
But my faith in God always took me further. I am now 52 years old and I
am so proud to say that I was raised in a church. I was around 12 years
old when I almost died on Christmas day. I wanted to spend the day with
my mother but I was sick in the infermory with a fever and severe
bronchitis. My mom asked the nuns if I could come with her for the day.
They told her I was able to go but I had to stay in bed. I went with my
mom and my sister to my aunts house. I stayed in bed and opened my gifts.
I was left alone in the bedroom , when I couldn't breathe my lungs
was closing up I was to weak to cough up the flem that was stuck in my
chest. I was scared and ran to the Living Room where my mom was. She and
everyone else were screaming to me what's wrong Yasmin, I felt my air
leaving me and as I was falling to the ground clutching my chest. I felt
a sudden calm. I wasn't nervous anymore I felt at peace with myself.
I suddenly felt a strong breeze or wind come into my body, lifted me up
from the floor and the next minute you know I was thrown against the wall
and coughed up blood and flem from my chest. You see I was on the floor
just about dead and it was god's spirit that lifted me from that
floor. My mom told me my eyes were white when I was on the floor. It was
then I realized it wasn't my time to go. God had something else
better for me in life. I went to the emergeny room that night and my mom
says she could not believe what she saw. She asked me what did I feel. I
told her I felt a strong breeze enter my body and this breeze gave me the
strenth to get me up from the floor. I am telling you this because we are
all special in gods eyes, we are here for a purpose and our faith in him
will guide us always. Each and everyone of us has the ability to achieve
what we want, not always when we want, but when God wants. Every morning
when you wake up you pray that he has given you another day and make the
best of it. You never know when it will be your last. Miss you all God
Bless You

Saint Paul Roman Catholic
Orphan Asylum - Pittsburgh, PA.
approx 1875 -
1880
I'm looking for information on my great grandmother
Margaret (Maggie) Hampton Hammill and her sisters Lizzie, Annie and Cate
Hampton. Maggie might not have lived there but Annie is listed as a
boarder at the orphange in 1880 and I think Lizzie might have been there
before 1880. I'm not sure if Cate (Catharine)Hampton was ever
there.
North Georgia - Probably
Stephens or Hall Counties
After
1877
I'm looking for any orphanage records for North GA.
I've just found out my g grandfather, James Lonzo "Lonnie"
Boyd, may have been adopted either in Hall Co., GA, or Stephens Co., GA,
sometime after he was born in 1877. Lonnie was raised by James B. and
Mary A. Boyd of Hall Co., GA, and he died in 1934 in Toccoa, GA. While I
knew for many years Lonnie was not directly descended from James &
Mary Boyd, I've only recently been told by an older relative that
Lonnie was adopted. I was told Lonnie's parents were both killed in
a buggy - train collision, but I don't know how old Lonnie would have
been at the time. I'd be grateful for info on orphanages in that area
would be very much appreciated as I know absolutely nothing about those
institutions. E-mail to me at [email protected], [email protected],
or [email protected], Dale Boyd, Evans, GA.
North Georgia - Probably

After
1877
I'm looking for any orphanage records for the St. Joseph
Orphanage in Washington, GA. I believe my g grandfather's (George
Washington Wheeler) brothers Harry Wheeler and Aaron Wheeler may have
been placed in that orphanage in the late 1800s. I understand the
brothers may have been placed in the orphanage after the marriage
separation of their parents, James Wheeler and Flora Jones. I'd be
grateful for info on that orphanage as I know little about it. E-mail
to me at [email protected], [email protected], or

St. Michael's Orphanage,
Hopewell, NJ
about 6 years
Mutchko, Keminsky,Baptised at Saint's Peter & Paul
Church in Ambridge, PA.
My dads name was John Joseph Mutchko (of course we have had several names
on several pieces of paper from his past but Mutchko appeared mostly).
My dad had a sister Anna and 2 brothers Frank & George. Frank and
George had the last name Keminsky as there father married our grandmother
after her first husband died. We did find Uncle Frank thanks to the Arch
Dioces in Trenton that referred us to Catholic Charities in Red Bank NJ.
Uncle George passed away before we got to meet him and we never did find
his sister Anna. According to the admissions card from St. Michael's
Orphanage, (yes I have the original card) The man that put my dad and his
brothers into this orphanage was John Keminsky (my dads stepfather). My
dads father John Mutchko died in 1919, one year after my father was born.
Anna's age is listed with my dad's so we don't know if they
were twins or not.
If ANYONE has any information about this situation please please contact
me as soon as possible. My grandmothers name was Martha Mutchko
Keminsky, she died in 1927.
I look forward to hearing from anyone with any info.
Thank you,

This is for anyone that was raised in a catholic orphanage in
the New York City area. I think that the catholic church should be ashame
of themself exploiting the only memories that some of us have of our
childhood. Charging $15.00 a photo for some precious memories to us is
outragious and greedy, and should know that people see just how selfish
and greedy the catholic church has gotten all these years. I grew up in
St. Joseph Hall at 735 Willoughby Ave. Brooklyn N.Y. I spent 14yrs. of my
life along with my sisters in that place. I have good memories and bad
memories of St. Joseph hall. Some of which I am not proud to talk about.
I would prefur to remember the good things that St. Joseph has done for
me and my fellow childhood sisters(friends). Most of us fellow orphans
can't aford to pay $15.00 a photo to have some kind of childhood
pictures to have for our own children to have a glimps of how life was
for us. I think it's apalling just how we orphans are being subjected
to this kind of fleesing from the church and the city of N.Y. for
allowing this kind of behavior of treatment to orphans that are now
adults to continue exploiting and demeaning our childhood memories for
CASH. SHAME ON YOU AND THE CITY OF NEW YORK FOR PUTTING MONEY BEFOR US

I was in St. John's from fall of 1950 thru late 1953. I
remember the nun we had was Sister Mary Monica, she was so nice. When I
turned 7, I had to go upstars and leave my younger sister on the first
floor. If anyone was in the orhanage at this time, please send me a
note. I particularly remember a girl who had one only half an arm (not
sure what side). She was so kind one time when I was scared by a
nightmare. I went to see the building (Condo's) in 2001, there was
enough there to satisfy my obcession to see it again. I can rest now.

St. Vincent Orphan Asylum,
Louisville, KY
1928-1946
I had a somewhat positive life experience in the orphanage.
I now have three children and 7 grandchildren. When my children relate
their problems with their children to me, I always reply that all
children should grow up like I did. It made me strong and independent.
Of course, everything wasn't perfect, but then life isn't perfect
no matter whose life we're discussing. Most of my problems occurred
when I worked my way through highschool living at Mt. Mercy Boarding
School in Pewee Valley, KY. There was an extremely abusive nun there who
sort of made my life miserable. I coped and got beyond that when I left
at age 17, got a job and made my way in the world. In my early years, I
learned morality and accountability. These lessons have stayed with me
all my life. I learned that nuns are nuns and all are just people.
Meaning some are good and some not so good. I was very lucky and my life
has been fulfilling. I want to say thank you to all the people who were
helpful to me during the years when I was growing up. I especially want
to thank my social worker, Mrs. Harriet Broderick, of Louisville, KY. I
believe God sent her into my life. I know she is long dead, but I've
never publicly thanked her for all she did for me. This is all I have to
say,hope it is helpful to a few who may read it.

I would love to hear from any one who was in

Sisters;
Sister Thecla
Sister Mary Catherine
SISTER AMELIA
Sister Regina There were two house mothers, Mrs Smith and Mrs. Nicolas.
I, at first was in the group, called The DePauls, and then went into The
Seatons. The Chaplains were Father Watson and then Father Willenberg, who
is now the Pastor of St. Agnes Church, in Utica. I'm sorry, but He
is a Monsignor. Some of the girls that I remember are as follows:
Ellen Fahy, Rita Pierkowski, Sharon Armstrong, Meredith Barber, Frances
Carpenter, June and Sally Witchley. I had a younger sister named Donna
who was in St Joseph's Infant Home, also in west Utica. When she
turned of age, she was then placed in St. John's and was put in the
group, called the Zoes. It was on the bottom floor. The DePauls and The
Seatons were on the 2nd. and the 3rd. floors. So any one who was at the
"Home" on those dates, pleaSE CONTACT ME AT [email protected].

area.
I know some of them retired to Odgensberg N.Y. I mainly remember, Sister
Thecla, Sister Amelia, Sister Regina, and Sister Mary Catherine. also,
two house mothers, Mrs. Smith, and Mrs. Nicolos. Father Watson was the
chaplain in 1950-? and then Father Willenburg, who is now Monsignor, at
St. Agnes Church, in Utica,N.Y. Some girls, I remember are Rita
Peirkowski, Ellen Fahy, Sharon Armstrong, Meredith Barber and Frances
Carpenter.
I remember all the fun we had. Swimming in the pool,ing on the
playground, with the gazebo, all the arts and crafts.,so much!!!
I remember the large kitchen on the first floor and the dumb waiter that
brought our meals to each floor. I had a sister who was also there. she
was in the "Zoes" and I was in the "Depauls"
and then the "Seatons" I was 12 years when I left there, but I
will always remember "THE HOME" It was a very important part
of my life. Oh yes we must not forget the hugh hill we use to sled down.
and the roller skating we did in the coutryard. There is so much to write
about, I could go on forever. If anyone is out there who was there,
please mail me at [email protected]. Sincerely

St. Mary's Orphanage in
Nashville, TN
6yr 1958-1964
I am looking for other kids that were in the orphanage with
me. I have fond memories for St. Mary's and would like to find others
that share the same. When I first came to the orphanage@ the age of
12yrs, I had just arrived from Germany and spoke no English. We learned
how to work and earn the things we got. My good friends were the care
takers, The Rowenzaks.Others that I remember were: Oscar Galliger, Bobby
Galliger, Shirley Perry,Robert Crenshaw, Bobby Clubs,Christain Tiet,Clara
Sue Davis. During my time the Head Nun was Sister Mary Margaret and
Sister Mary Patrick, Kitchen Head Nun was Sister Martha Ann. My fondest
memories were working in the fields, shooting marbles on the playground,
working Mondays @ the laundry( with no school), swimming in the creek
behind the orphanage, going in the summers to Camp MaryMount & going
to the movies @ the Bellmeade Theater (if you were good by the Nun's
standards).

Catholic Orphanage System

1898 ?
Mary McCarty placed in
orphanage system as a toddler
I am looking for
any and all information regarding my maternal grandmother Mary McCarty.
She was born in 1896 and was the daughter of McCarty/Rountree marriage,
she was an only child. Her mother died when Mary was very young, her
father could no longer care for her, and put her in the Catholic
Orphanage system in the city of Philadelphia, PA. She never knew her
exact day of birth, but it is listed as 1896 on documents. Her
father's first name might have Bill, we are not sure. I think her
mother's name was Elizabeth Rountree. If someone could tell me how I
can search through this system, I would be very grateful.
Mary did go onto marry William McEntee, she just never knew her past. I
would like to finally put it together for all of the family.
Thank you,

Tennessee Children's Home Society or St. Peters
Orphanage/Memphis, TN
1940's
I was born in 1938, Shelby County, Memphis, TN. I was in an
orphange( I think it was called Tennessee Children's Home Society)
which burned down...it was run by a woman by the name of Georgia Tann who
was being prosecuted for stealing something like 3000 babies and she was
adopting them out of this Adoption agency...She died and therefore, it
was never proved. I just found out that I had siblings...two brothers
and one sister. I don't know if they were also put into the adoption
agency along with me or if they ended up in another ophanage, possibly
St. Peters in Memphis. I would like to find out anything I can about St.
Peters Orphanage in Memphis, not the one in New Jersey.
If anyone out there was from this same ophanage or any past employees of
one of these orphanages, it would be greatly appreciated if you would
contact me. I'm approaching 70 years old so the sooner the better.
Thanks for your help...

Catholic Orphanage East Saint
Louis
1920's
My Dad and his Sister were sent to a catholic orphange in
East Saint Louis when he was 6 years old and his sister was 3 years old.
My dad was born 1913 so I assume it was around 1919 0r 1920's when
they went there. They were sent by train from Western Kentucky to this
orphange. I am tryig to find out more about the orphanage and there for
gain more knowledge about my Dads past. He ended up running away from the
orphanage when he was around 14 or 15 years old. He then hopped trains
and traveled all over the US before finding his uncle back in Western
Kentucky and lived with them and helped them work the farm. He went to
school and church and got a second chance at life and thats how he ended
up meeting my mother and marrying her and later became a Baptist
Preacher. I am the last of 9 children and would love to find out more
about Dads family and his life. If anyone has any information I would
greatly appreciate it. Thanks Carol Barendregt

Orphanage. Her name was Jacqueline "Jackie" Mae? I'm
not sure if this is her last or middle name. I remember her well when
I visited my aunt and uncle and they took such good care of her but
after a time she found permanent home I believe. I would love to
share these pictures that my aunt and uncle treasured over the years.
They both are now deceased. I know this isn't much to go on, but
hope someone can give me some info on this Louisville orphanage or who I
might contact in regard to Jackie. At two years old she had beautiful
blonde hair, blue eyes as best I remember and my aunt would always keep
her little brown shoes polished all the time and Jackie had one of those
"Chatty Cathy" laughs that everyone loved. I want to let her
know she was very much loved and cared for by my aunt and uncle when she
was two years old.
Can anyone help me to find her or her family?

Dear Brother in Christ,
�May the wings of peace rest upon thy dwelling and May Almighty God;
bless thee with happiness and prosperity�. Greetings to you in the pious
name of our Saviour Lord Jesus Christ.
Sub: I. G.Cliffeson, Founder & President of Cross & Cross
Ministries - Give Financial Support requesting of
*****
I have had an opportunity to write a letter to you regarding my Ministry
i.e. Cross & Crown Ministries (Bear the cross & Wear the Crown)
Registered under Government of India. I enclosed here with proofs of Bi-
Monthly Magazine and some pictures.
I am very much interested in preaching the word of God, while helping the
poor illustrate and also among the Idol worshipping Hindu religious
people. Actually, I have a great vision of spreading the Gospel to the
poor and needy and also to the novice of the word of God. Since India is
a secular state and many religions of diversified doctrines are being
preach. I deem it a great privilege to spread Gospel in Hindu Idol
worship people.
As Jesus Christ said to His disciples those who want to follow Him, let
them deny themselves and take their Cross and go ye in to the entire
world and preach the Gospel to each and every creature.
Thus, we are going to rural and agency areas to spread the word of God
through this Magazine and make them to come back to God and accept the
Lord Jesus Christ as the savior to �Bear the Cross & Wear the Crown�.
It is be solicited, in my Congregation So many people are suffering with
financial need to continue their further studies and some of them are old
aged, widows even they have no support from their families. I sincerely
feel to give them a possible support to the utmost poor people, but I am
helpless, because I came from a poor Family and my Father was fell sick
and completely bed ridden, since 4 years. Nor I am receiving any support,
assistance or any either locally or abroad.
Our Lord God has saith �There will always be poor people in the land.
Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your brothers and toward
the poor and needy in your land� (Deut 15:11). �Defend the poor and
fatherless! Do justice to the afflicted and needy. Delivery the poor and
needy; rid them out of the hand of the wicked� (Ps 82:3, 4).
�He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he
hath given will he pay him again� (Prov 19:17). �A generous man will
himself be blessed, for he shares his food with the poor.� (Prov 22:9).
Blessed is he who is kind to the needy� (Prov 14:21).
Remember the word of God, how He hath said; more blessed to give than to
receive. Give and it shall be given unto you. That is why; I resolved to
follow the footprints of our saviour Lord Jesus Christ who served in the
midst of poor people. This is the main reason to run the trusty in the
name of Cross & Crown Ministries for the above said victims and to
help the helpless and help the needy. God has performed many miracles in
my life. He has stored for me to continue His service. So, I trusted Him
and Depended on Him. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my
fortress my God in him will i trust. Make Him my habitation and taste the
Love of God, the comforts and the peace of God, which he gives freely to
all. I once again requesting you kindly give support to the Cross &
Crown Ministries for Delivery the poor and needy.
Secondly, I came to know that I am going to start an Educational
Institute & Computer Coaching Centre in the name of �Stone Star� for
the poor people, which are not able to pay the fees to Study. In
addition, we are going to start an Orphanage Centre in the name of Cross
& Crown Ministries.
We now with a fond hope approaching you through this appeal to extend you
are helping hand in a big way. Kindly put this issue in your closed-door
prayers and do the needful for the orphans. We are praying for your Good
health, long life & Spiritual prosperity and we request the same from
you. I believed that the Holy Spirit dwelt in the hearts of believers and
in the hearts of the righteousness, and that He heard all their prayers.
Praise the Lord.
Thanking you,
With kind regards
Yours in His Service,

Why would she name him then give him away,my goodness she married our Dad

I would like to locate others who were living at St. Domenico
or St. Domenic's as it was known as, too. I have a lot of good
memories from those days in 1954 to 1958. Recently was in touch with one
fellow from there. Is there an alumni group from this home? I would
love to attend a reunion.
I remember fondly the nuns: Sr. Elizabeth Marie, Sr. Mary Rose, Sr.
Robert Thomas, Sr. Gregory, and many others. Remember making fudge and
carmel with Sr. Elizabeth Marie. We would each get one small piece in
wax paper to eat while we watched Shirley Temple movies.
I loved that big old house and the grounds it sat on. It is still there.
Enjoyed climbing the trees and playing in the sandbox all day long in the
summer. (After we did our chores, of course.)
Please contact me if you lived at ST. Domenico's Italian Home in St.

Chapin Hall, Chicago,
Illinois
1960s
I've spent my life thinking about my friend Denise Wilmot
who lived at Chapin Hall in Chicago during the early 60s. I lived about 5
blocks from the orphanage, we walked to Budlong School together, and
before my family moved to the northern suburbs in 1965, my mother
arranged for Denise to spend the night at our apartment and I spent one
night with her at Chapin Hall. I returned to Chapin Hall the moment I
was old enough to drive myself there, but it was already 1972, and Denise
was no longer there. I believe that the orphanage closed shortly
thereafter. I believe that Denise had an older sister at Chapin Hall as
well, and that Denise would now be about 53 or 54 yrs. old.
I'm hoping to find you Denise and my prayer is that life has been
kinder to you through the years. With love, Michele

Hello,
I was wondering if anybody knew my father Lawrence (larry)Santmier. He
was in an orphange as a child. I do not know which one. He took me there
once when I was a child. It was within a cars rides distance from
Philadelphia. A couple of hours I suppose.I remember a big red brick
building,but i could be totally wrong about that. I was small at the
time.The only thing he said to me was that he was glad that the children
seemed to have a better life.And that it was brutal when he was there.If
there is anyway to search for this info please contact me.
St. Aloysius in Rhode
Island
1942-1944
Looking for anyone who may have been a resident or employee
at St. Aloysius in Rhode Island. My father, David Duffy, and my two
Aunts, Sheila and Gloria, were residents of St. Aloyisus from 1942 to
1944. They were placed there because my grandfather was divorced with
custody of the children and he was in the Army and to leave the children
when he was deployed. The children's mother (my grandmother) was an
alocolic and was not able to care for the children. David was
approximately 9 when he entered St. Aloysius, Gloria would have been
about 11, and Sheila was only 3, so because of her young age she actually
was sent to live at St. Vincent de Paul Infant Asylum. Side note, Gloria
was my grandmother's daughter from a previous relationship - my
grandfather was not her father, although he did attempt to get custody of
her during his divorce - but to no avail. Any contact would be greatly
appreciated.
my Mother Viola Elizabeth Church was taken to an orphanage
when she was eight years old by her parents Fred and Viola Church in
1902-1903. This orphanage was in Sprinfield, Ill. My Mother told me it
burned down and all records were lost. Does anyone remember this
orphanage?

Hi, Nita,
Goodness. It's really you! I was so happy to see what you said
here. I hope you found the 12 Cuban Girls and the others that you hoped
to find. By the time I saw this, your
email address had changed, so I haven't been able to contact you.
This brought up many good old memories. A lot of that was fine old times,
that is to say "the good old days" of childhood. My little
sister and I went to a deranged foster home which made it impossible for
me to keep in touch. So, I hope you can find it in you heart to
understand and forgive me that I stopped writing.
Life must have been hard for you, too. I prefer to remember the many
good things at St. Vincent's, especially the good nuns and
you and all the kids from the home. I would love to hear from you, and
may God go with you. Also, to any of the ones who lived there during that
time--1956 to 1960, yes, I would love to hear from you, too. I remember
you all with love, and may God go with you. Bernadette Young is my name.
Also, to anyone who is reading these posts and happens to see this: I
read a zillion of them, too. Remember, whether or not you find the ones
who are like brothers or sisters to you, Jesus loves you more than anyone
else could. May God bless and keep us all.

*****If there's anyone who used to live at St.
Vincent's ***** reading this during the years 1956 to 1960, I would
sure love to hear from you. It would be so wonderful to hear from any of
you, especially Juanita Mondonedo, the sweetest one I knew well and Linda
Loveless or Lovelace, who was maybe a couple of years older and had so
much personality and got such bad breaks, but was always kind to me. I
remember the good nuns and every kid very vividly. Goodness, the drama;
but, also, there were very many good things, the memories of which I will
always treasure. You may remember me as Bernadette Young. Looking
forward to hearing from you. May the Lord bless each and every one of
you. Yikes, I really miss you now just thinking of this.

St Joseph Hall Brooklyn, NY
1954 to
1958
Hi to all who read this, I was in St. Joe's from Early
1954 to August of 1958. I was there with my 2 sisters Nora and Roberta,
they are younger. I was in 2nd grade when I arrived and Sister Stella was
my teacher, and I believe Sister Joseph was our division nun for awhile
and then another Sister took her place and I was in the intermediate
group when I came there. I later went to the Junior division and Sister
Regina was in charge of this division and then Sister Bridgid hope I
spelled their names right. Some of the girls I remember are Regina,
Louisa very smart girls,and Joanne Ganzie this may be spelled wrong. I
remember all the fun we had at Shoreham, the Knights of Columbus who
came, visits to Macy's for shopping for Christmas,Connie Francis who
was part of the entertainment that also came, the Circus, and Rodeo We
used to have to watch Bishop Fulton J Sheen and Lawrence Welk with the
Lennon Sisters. My sister started an epidemic of Scarlet Fever that had
St. Joe's quarantined for awhile. These are just a few of the many
things we were able to experience there, I made my First Holy Communion
and Confirmation while I was there. I never realized how many things we
had done until I left and I truly missed it and when my mom came to take
us home for good I did not want to leave I was getting ready to move up
to the Senior Division and really wanted to get away from Sister Bridgid
I always seemed to be on her bad side, but I have the best memories of
being there. If anyone remembers some of these things I would love to
exchange emails with you. Jean

I am searching for any information about my mother,Alice
Tritschler Raible,now 85 years old. She had a brother George (now
deceased )and a sister Margaret (also deceased). When
her parents died she and George were sent to St. Michaels. Margaret was
an infant adopted right out of the crib. Mom's name then was Anna
Murga and they tell me she was born in a place called Cairnsbrook,
Pennsylvania. Of course Cairnsbrook has no information on her - lost in a
fire or something. She just needs some closure to those awful years in
that hell-hole.
Were you there at about the same time? Did you perhaps remember her? Any
information would be helpful.

My mother-in-law lived in an orphanage called the Half Orphan
Home or later renamed Stewarts or Stewards in NYC. She said it was on
Manhattan street in Manhattan although she has some memory problems and
this may be wrong. She was a resident there from 1937-1947. She is 80
years old now and I am trying to get as much information about this
place. If you have any information about the home, or anyone that lived
there during that time...I would appreciate hearing from you.
She said that the kids from the home would summer in the Adirondacks in
upstate New York. She has fond memories of her time in the
mountains.

Searching for girls from St. Joseph's Hall at 735

under the rule of Sister Meriem Lucy, Sister Edmund, Sister Rose Paul,
Father Stouter, Father Finbar. The staff were Miss Robinson, Miss
Florence. My teacher was Mrs. Keefe. I graduated with Marie Lopez, Angie
Quiles, Martha Catala, Leticia Morales, Carmen Velez, Kathy Hamerick,
Iris Valdivieso, Diane Gay,Lucy Rios, Patricia Green, Luz Caedona, Iris
Miranda and Bernandette Szkotnicki. I absolutely would luv to connect
with my peers from back in the day. While the days at St. Joseph were
mostly tolerable for me for others there were brutal times. My memmories
from Shoreham were for me wonderful.Spending that time away from the
confines of St. Joe's were a great escape into the wonders of
climbing Vanilla, Chocolate and Strawberry mountains. Swimming in the
waters of the L.I. sound and crossing over to Wading River were truly
wonderful experiences. I remember the dances,activities,camping and well
just growing up! My e-mail is [email protected] if you would also like
to share your memmories or try to connect. Hopefully someone out there
has pictures of that part of my life.

It is very difficult to search the archives to see if anyone

to: [email protected] . Thanks.
I was born at Martha Washington Home for Unwed Mothers . The problem I
am having is that my Birth Mother knew my Mom and I believe she gave me
to her " under the table " so to speak. On my records I
received from the Salvation Army it shows the name Rose T. only as the
Birth Mother. I don't think my Biological Mother could spell
Topetzes. My Mother's maiden name was D'Amato, Rose. I was born
September 23, 1946.
If my Birth Mother is still alive or has any family, I would appreciate a
reply to my email address.
Thanks much,

All I can say is Oh My God!
Just last night I was at my son's house visiting and talking about so
many different topics of life itself, when we just came across talking
about St. Joseph's Hall. I am Evelyn Feal, my sister's name is
Miriam Feal. Do you remember me? Miriam my sister just passed away just a
few days ago on April 3rd, of an anurism in her brain. My son and I spoke
about our childhood in the home for hours and we cried together. I went
on talking about how I entertained Sr. Richard, Sr. Marguerite and the
rest of the children in my division, St. Vincent De Paul. I would sing
opera, Somewhere Over the rainbow, and other christmas songs.
Do you remember Miss Shatner? The little christmas play we performed
where Miriam my sis played as santa clause, god we were all small. I went
into the home at the age of 6, and left at 13 yrs old, 1967. Remember
another play about the "13 Little Colonies"? I was the 13th
little colony. I remember most of the girls everyone's mentioned and
all that kept coming out of my mouth was "oh my god, oh my god, I
remember all of them!!" My son and I decided to go online to see if
we can google St. Joseph's Hall and sure enough, we found you guys!
Wow, what a surprise! I suddenly felt little all over again. One memory
right after the other. Remembering Shoreham, L.I., running fast down the
white long, long stairs to reach the beach way in the bottom of the
stairs, then to see who can be the first ones to grab a color kickboard,
remember??? Do you remember Pat Sweeney, our swimming instructor? Bruce
Henry had the hots for her. They married and had kids I heard. I remember
the WHITE TEAM and the BLUE TEAM! Going to The WORLD'S FAIR. The
CARNIVAL.
Going to campsites with REAL LIVE INDIANS DANCING FOR US! I just watched
to my amazement and loved it all. I remember Elizabeth Santiago, Pat
Owens, Pat's twin sisters Nancy Owens and Mary Owens, also Nancy
Varela, my card canasta playing partner after "study hour"
(after homework time). Also Martha Catala, she had the hots for my
brother at the time. They actually dated later on. I remember the matrons
that took care of us, Miss Eleanor, Miss Hazel and Miss Ann. Everyone
hated Sister Richard. She used to hit us for any little mistake we made
growing up. Also everyone was in love with Fred Punzo, do u remember
him??? lol... He was gorgeous. There were rumors that he made out with
Pat Owens underneath a stair case, lol.... God Bless Us All, Soooo so
many memories, I wanna cry...feeling so emotional just remembering our
little childhood. Looking forward to your reply, let me know if you
remember me and my sis Miriam.
Hope we can remain friends, your friend, Evelyn Feal.

I am searching for the records of Lucy, Eva and Cecila
Gonzales, They were sisters and were placed in (I think the name is
correct)"Sacred Heart Orphanage" in Pueblo Colorado around
1919, they lived in Trinidad Colorado. Their mother died of the flu and
child birth, the baby Jose' and mother Juanita were buried together
in the Garcia Cemetery in Trinidad Colorado. Their father Ricardo
promised Juanita the mother he would place the girls in a orphanage so
they would be safe, from what I heard so far it was not an easy life for
Lucy.
I have been working on the "Gonzales Family Tree" for about 30
years and would like to put a small story about the girls and their live
in the orphanage.
I you have any information please e-mail me at ([email protected])Thank
You,
Betty Gonzales

was happy to see you were still writing on the board. I wish I can
remember the things you guy's remember, but I don't. I remember
Shoreham and the home, but you guys remember names and all. I am really
impressed. I'm fine. I got married, I have 2 dogs and my kids are
doing fine also. I wish sometimes we can go back in time. We were so
innocent then, and now life is so hard. I do remember when I used to sing
in the curch with my guitar. I used to like putting on plays. I still
sing but now in church.I have pictures of the home. I think it was you
who sent it to me. I saved them on my computer.If you or anyone wants
them, please e-mail me at [email protected] and I will send you what I
have. I wish I could remember more, buI I do love reading your comments.

New York Foundling
Asylum/Sisters of Charity
after
1862
I am looking for my GGreat Grandmother,Laura Ellsworth
Britton born abt 1862 maybe New York.I can only find one notation for her
in the 1900 census for Montana,Laura states that she is from the
Foundling Asylum of New York and that she was born about 1862 New
york.Laura somehow ends up in Illinois before 1900,maybe by the orphan
train,I am not sure.I do know contact was made by her daughter in the
early 1960's to someone in Illinois,whom that was I am unsure.It is
thought by our family that the people in Illinois were relatives,but I
have found no proof of that.Laura goes to Montana in the mid 1880's
and Marries Daniel M Robeson in 1890 in Montana and she passes away in
1901.None of the relatives that would know are no longer alive.I know
that the Sisters of Charity doesn't start up until 1869 or 1870,so I
am estimating Laura;s stay at Sisters to be between 1869 and 1875.I also
believe that Laura may have been of Irish descent.

17 years when I was born. Her father died on August that same year

born. My biological mother wants to become a beautician, and I think she
completed her high school between 1958-1960. She has an older sister
married with to children and 5 younger sisters living in one apartment in
Bronx, New York. A younger brother, about a year and a half died of an
intestinal disorder in 1953. My biological mother has another brother
incarcerated for burglary, serving a sentence of two to five year, at

I'm looking for anyone who was in this orphanage during
this time period. My twin sister, Dottie, & I were put there when we
turned 6 years old. Our younger sister, Sharon, who was 5 years younger
than us, joined us when she turned 6 also. The Sisters of Mercy took
care of us. There were both boys & girls at this orphanage but none
of us were orphans - we were all from broken homes. We attended the
Catholic Grammer School located on Queen St. We left to live with our
mother when I was about 16 - the orphanage closed in the 70's. The
building was torn down & condos are there now. Would like to hear
from others who lived there or want or need information about this
orphanage. Email me at [email protected]. My name then was Linda

St. Joseph for the Friendless,

1960-1970
I am looking for anyone who might have been at St.
Joseph's for the Friendless in Chicago, Ilinois during the time from
1960- 1970. I am doing research from William Andrew Bordenkecher.
William's father is Joseph Andrew Bordenkecher, his mother is Doris
Marie Martinez. We do have a copy of the birth certificate. We have a
copy of the marriage certificate.
William was in St. Joseph's from about 1960 - 1970. He did go to a
foster family surname KREMER. He was born in 1956 in Chicago, Illinois.
He has a sister with the name Katherine, Catherine.
The orphanage was run by the Catholic Charities. He did see a letter
written by his mother, but all the important parts were blacked out by
the nuns. He was not allowed to take the letter with him nor make a
copy.
We are looking for anyone who was in the orphanage at the same time as
William or who knew his mother and/or father.
Please contact me at [email protected]. God Bless.

When I sat down and tried to remember some of the names of the other

remembers me or my brother or sister, I would like to hear from you. I
am particularly interested in hearing what happened to my friend Sharon
Lynch and her sister Sandy. I remember - Peggy Craft, Pat, Douglas and
Robert South, Martha, Carolyn, Larry Jones, Arthur Devereaux, Eddie
Mabry, Dottie and Linda Malverty. I also remember a Donna, and her
brothers whose parents were from Puerto Rico. I remember a Judy Anderson
and Linda LaFayette and a blond girl named Debbie. There was a Larry
Willington and Buddy and Gerry Martin. I am sorry if I forgot anyone,
but it has been 50 years and my memory is a little foggy at times. I
have often wondered what happened to all those people with whom I shared
paI don't know about anyone else.rt of my life. If anyone would like
to get in touch, please feel free. I live in TN now, and the last time I
was in Charleston was to bury my mother a year or so ago. I know the
orphanage was torn down in the 70's. I also know that St. Cecelia
lived at the retirement home on James Island. Other than that, I

Mabry, Dottie and Linda Malverty. I also remember a Donna, and her
brothers whose parents were from Puerto Rico. I remember a Judy Anderson
and Linda LaFayette and a blond girl named Debbie. There was a Larry
Willington and Buddy and Gerry Martin. I am sorry if I forgot anyone,
but it has been 50 years and my memory is a little foggy at times. I
have often wondered what happened to all those people with whom I shared
part of my life. If anyone would like to get in touch, please feel free.
I live in TN now, and the last time I was in Charleston was to bury my
mother a year or so ago. I know the orphanage was torn down in the
70's. I also know that Sr. Cecelia lived at the retirement home on
James Island. Other than that, I don't have any more info. Gail

Looking for anyone who has any information on Mazie and Harry
Losey. They operated a foster care home out of their Apt at 224 So.
Orange Avenue in Newark, New Jersey. Mazie Losey died in 1962 and the
home was closed. I am looking for any of the children that may have
lived with the Losey's at this facility. PLEASE share any photos if
you have any. I also attend St. Antoninus Church school during those
years. Mazie Losey's maiden name was Mazie Wykes from Orange, New
jersey. Her mother was Francis Wykes, father, William Wykes. She had a
sister Elsie, brother William, brother Robert
Mazie and Harry had 3 children - Eleanor, Harry N, and Lorraine Lee
Madden). Harry's first wife was Blanche Losey. Does anyone know if
she ended up in an asylum? Would love to receive any information

As a child growing up in Philadelphia, Pa. my father and I
used to go to an orphanage to take my outgrown toys. I remember there
were nuns there. It was a very large house/mansion-looking building,
with a very large, level front yard. There was a very low stone wall
around it of the same stone as was used in the house. I believe it was
greysish stone. If anyone has any idea about this orphanage, I would
greatly appreciate it.

Saint Domenico Italian Orphans

1947-1952
Saint Domenico Italian Orphans Home 1931-1962
Theodore Salorgne House, 1340 Partridge Ave., University City, c. 1893
This modest three-story mansion with a small third floor that can be
regarded as an �attic� was built in 1891 and 1892 by Theodore Salorgne,
Jr.
The house is built of quarried-stone and has or had a distinctive red
Spanish-style clay-tiled roof.
Built centrally on ten acres, the property also contained a barn, a root
cellar, a chicken coop, a vineyard, flower gardens (Snapdragons) and
several fruit-bearing trees; among them, persimmon trees as well as other
large trees.
The property was sold to the Sisters of Saint Mary in 1909.
The building became a residence for retired and convalescing nuns.
At that time, the St. Mary nuns debated whether a new hospital and
convent would be built at the property. It was not.
In 1926, working with the Women�s Retreat League, the house was converted
into a retreat center. The building was sold once again after the St.
Mary order had built a new hospital and convent on Clayton Road.
The property was sold to the St. Domenico Italian Orphans Home. (1931-
1962)
The Saint Domenico organization had been founded in 1921 through a
bequest of Domenico and Maria Signaigo.
Father Cesare Spigardi from St. Charles Borromeo Church, determined at
the time that the bequest was not enough until 1925 when Mrs. Rosa
Cafferata left in her will a bequest for the future St. Domenico to
Archbishop Glennon.
Mr. Cesare Chichizola, a Board member and his daughter (and graduate of
St. Elizabeth�s Academy was a Precious Blood sister - Sister Mary Rose,
C.pp.S) was placed at the new Orphanage.
Due to the Orphanage being under the care of Sisters of the Most Precious
Blood, whose mother house is in O�Fallon Missouri, she was assigned
there. (The sisters were mostly from rural Missouri farming families of
German ancestry.)
The St. Louis Italian community was unsuccessful in getting an Italian
order of nuns to care for the mostly Italian-American children at that
time.
By the late 1950s and 60s, the ancestry of the children were mixed.
The Orphanage started with ten children in 1931 when the mansion was the
only building.
In those days, both the Sisters and the children lived in the original
mansion.
A first and former resident in 2008 said that it was quite hot during the
stifling Summer when she and the other children lived on the third floor
(or attic). She went on to say that Sisters were quite strict with the
children.
The Sister's bedrooms were on the second floor. The first floor
consisted of two large parlors, a dining room, a small breakfast room, a
staircase, a large foyer with a fireplace, a staircase with a magnificent
stained glass window on the landing leading to the second floor, an
utility room (Pantry) and kitchen. The basement of the mansion was
basically laundry and storage.
Access to the mansion is from Partridge Avenue through a stone arched
gateway with double gates leading to a circular drive-way that circled
around the buildings. The same drive led to a rear exit near the barn
leading to Pennsylvania Ave. The two major roads were Page Ave on the
north and Olive Street Road on the south.
The stone gateway indicated painted lettering on its arched section:
"San Domenico Italian Orphanage" or when the times changed;
"St. Domenico Italian Children's Home.
A stone statue of St. Dominic, founder of the Domincan Order of friars
was installed in front of the mansion was a gift from Domenica Casaleggi,
a California resident. The statute was the most pronounced feature
standing in front of the Home.
Saint Domenico attracted the support of many prominent families in the
St. Louis Italian American community, and when it was able to build a 2-
story chapel wing (that was added on to the rear of the mansion) in 1938,
many of them contributed art-glass windows. The three Italian parishes in
St. Louis were St. Charles Borromeo, Our Lady Help of Christians and St.
Ambrose. Only Saint Ambrose Parish remains while the other two have been
demolished.
The first floor of the new building consisted of two dining rooms and the
school room with the chapel on the entire second floor. The basement was
used as an indoor play area and other events.
In 1947, another building was built and that wing was connected by a mid-
air walkway to the mansion on its north side. This 2-story stone building
would be the new dormitory respectively for the boys on the first floor
and the girls on the second floor. Each floor had a private bedroom for
one Sister.
The rather large basement was a playroom, laundry and other storage
closets.
The immediate neighborhood community consisted of middle class Jewish
families, thus the Sisters and the children were the only Gentiles. It
was not unusual to observe a Sister conversing with their Jewish
neighbors.
Another former resident living in Dallas, TX: "I would like to
locate others who were living at St. Domenico. I have a lot of good
memories from those days in 1954 to 1958. Recently was in touch with one
fellow from there. Is there an alumni group from this home? I would love
to attend a reunion. I remember fondly the nuns: Sr. Elizabeth Marie, Sr.
Mary Rose, Sr. Robert Thomas, Sr. Gregory, and many others. Remember
making fudge and caramel with Sr. Elizabeth Marie. We would each get one
small piece in wax paper to eat while we watched Shirley Temple movies. I
loved that big old house and the grounds it sat on. It is still there.
Enjoyed climbing the trees and playing in the sandbox all day long in the
summer. (After we did our chores, of course.) Please contact me if you
lived at St.. Domenico's Italian Home in St. Louis MO.
By the 1970s and the 1980s, the 2-storey barn, the chicken coop and other
stand-alone structures (Gazebos) would be torn-down due to age. (One of
the more prominent gazebo housing the Holy Family was a favorite for the
kids who would hide and seek.)
The root cellar was filled-in. The grape vin-yard was removed along with
the original stone-arched gateway and gates. Some of the large Oak and
Locust trees are gone. The statute of St. Dominic has long gone. The
clay-tiled roof was replaced by either slate or shingle.
By this time, there is nothing left to indicate that this was ever St.
Domenico except the original Theodore Salorgne mansion.
By 1961-1962, the Italian Orphans Home would close. Sisters Mary Rose,
Elizabeth Marie, Timothy, Isabel and Gregory et al received the news of
the closing of this rather unique institution. (Pictured above is Sister
Julitta Maurer, one of the former teachers wearing the new habit adopted
by Congregation of the Most Precious Blood sometime in 1961-1962.)
The need for full-service orphanages decreased, and in 1962 the property
became Mercita Hall, a Group Home for teenage girls who were not being
served by foster homes.
Mercita Hall was operated by the Sisters of Mercy and gradually was
replaced by Marian Hall, another agency serving severely-disturbed and
behaviorally-disordered youth.
By this time, there were very few nuns left and most staff were lay-women
with specialized training.
In 1988 the property was transferred to the Archbishop of the St. Louis
Archdiocese.
It appeared that at one time, the property would be re-developed for
housing.
The original ten acres was laid out by as St. Domenico Court but it never
happened.
It was later subdivided by Mary Stock as Penn Park and Roberts Court
after 1970 with the remainder of the property to be known as Good
Shepherd Services for Children and Youth sometime in 2008 after its final
consolidation of four pre-existing Catholic Service Agencies into one.
As of Spring, 2008, new Construction of additional buildings to the rear
of the former chapel /school room / dining room building (1938) is due to
be completed in 2009. This expansion indicate that the property has
become a small complex or campus consisting of 4 buildings providing
numerous services for children and youth.
The new building standing on the former vineyard and drive will attach
itself to the chapel-wing building. The original mansion building, c1893;
the chapel / school room / dining room building, 1938, and the dormitory
building, 1947 will join the new building.
All of the original founders and Nuns have died and most of the former
children are now elderly. The memories are fading.
Attention! Photos from alumni are welcome.
Please, we need pictures of the Home, Sisters and any child that lived at
Saint Domenico.

Some orphanage in
Indiana
Looking for information on my great-grandfather, John
Franklin Champion. According to stories, he and his brother were placed
in an orphanage in Indiana after his father and then mother (it is said
she was a Cherokee indian maiden) died from typhoid in late 1870's
early 1880's.
He and his brother were in the orphange for several years before the
brother was adopted by unknown people. This orphange would take the boys
to work on farms. John loved farming and eventually just walked away
from one of these farms and moved to the Tennessee / Kentucky area.
I believe he may have been born in the Perry County, Indiana, area.
John's father may have also been named John.
John's mother: name unknown
The family may have moved to Indiana from an eastern state.
This is all the information I have, can anyone help?

I'm so sick of attempting to find my grandmother Ida Jane
Wallace who was adopted by Hiram Wallace. She was born in 1874-1875
either in Pennsylvania or Maryland. She was adopted in 1876. It was
rumored she was in a Pennsylvania Civil War Orphanage. If only the
information was free! Why in the world after about 70 years after my
grandmother died this information isn't free!!! I think it's
unfair that the states don't release information on people or orphans
that are over 100 years old, ie my grandmother would be about 135 years
old now. Each state gets greedy and wants money for everything!! If you
are not sure which state the orphanage, adoption or birth was you can pay
thousands of dollars to states who just tell you after gaving them the
money....oh, we don't find information.
I think everyone who has listings from these old civil war orphanages
aught to post it so their fellow orphan families don't end up
spending thousands for information that should be free in the first
place....after all you can get US census up to 1930!!!!!!!!

I am certain the orphanage you are both looking for is St

harsh place to be. There is a gray stone building and wall matching
your description. Although I am unsure of the date, the original
building burnt to the ground.
During my stay there, the nuns were very abusive and we were never given
any of the toys or clothing that were donated, as we were in uniforms.
Toys were simply not allowed. There were huge parties at Christmas
where we were given toys and clothes, when the party was over the nuns
quickly confiscated them. We never saw them again.

I'm looking for anyone who might remember or would like
to talk about their memories of this orphanage. My personal memory was
that this was run on a daily basis by the Dominican nuns on the girls
side, and priest on the boy's side.
We were caught up in a time when punishments were quite severe and used
without warning. The Catholic religion was also part of our daily
regime. Every facet of our life there was the fear of God and giving up
your life to him. Please contact me if this sounds remotely familiar to
you. I have many stories to tell.

Thompson Orphanage (Charlotte,

1968-
69?
I am curious if anyone has lived in this orphanage during the
late 60's to early 70's, around the time when the campus first
moved from the old location and they were renamed Thompson Children's
Home. It would be fascinating to have a reunion of some
sort.

To All the girls from St Josephs, hope your easter was as
heart lifting as mine was. One of my fondest memories was making my
First Communion on Easter so many years ago when I was in 2nd grade... I
remember my partner fainting and me having to lead the procession and
missing my mark on the floor because I was so nervous !!! I remember the
big mural on the front church wall "Suffer the little children to
come unto me", I remember our fancy little white dresses and
petticoat to make our dresses poof out, and our black little patent
leather shoes, and purse, and new white bible, and the scapula, and not
being able to eat breakfast before church. Later on in 5th or 6th grade
getting to make my Confirmation. I remember not wanting to leave St.
Josephs when my mother came to take me home for good. St Josephs was my
home. I remember taking the bus to Shoreham every summer and sleeping in
the cottages and the Sister having her own room in the cottage while we
girls slept in our own beds something like 8 kids to a cottage. Going
down the wooden steps and the wonderful smell of the ocean beach.. I
remember going to the World's Fair and being mezmerized by "The
Pieta" how white and shiny, big and oh how so sad Mary was holding
the body of our Lord Jesus Christ ...
