What Became of the Children

What Became of the Children?

I have researched various children, who resided in the Warrick County Orphans' Home in Boonville, Indiana, since the year 2002.

These children are found in the census, birth, death and marriage records of Warrick and surrounding counties. Many children listed in the earliest register have no parent information listed for them.

Three important resources:

History Record January 1, 1910 [second Orphans Home Register]
