Blog about British Home Children

I wrote a series of 3 blog posts on our relative John Christianson who was a home child. There are several links on these posts that may be helpful in your research.

This first link is a post  about the Workhouse...

And this one is about Home Children...

Most of the records I found about my ancestors who were in  the workhouse were on ancestry.com. The workhouse actually kept very good records of the people going in and going out.

I hope this is helpful to anyone researching this very interesting time in history.
