Do you want to learn about British Home Children? Join our virtual Society meeting on WebEx, Tuesday, June 23 at 7 pm to hear from Norma Davis Cook, the granddaughter of two British Home Children.
Norma writes: “Our family lives in Carleton County, New Brunswick, where my Dad’s parents settled after being sent here as British Home Children in the early 1900’s. My grandparents’ mysterious past has always intrigued me, but I never realized the truth was out there until I started searching on Ancestry a few years ago. The history of children like my grandparents has become my primary line of research as I attempt to uncover their stories to share with successive generations.”
Email southingtongenealogicalsociety@gmail.com for the WebEx meeting link to join the meeting. The room will be open by 6:30 pm if you want to join and avoid technical difficulties.
If all goes well, the meeting will be recorded and shared for a limited time on our youtube channel (password required).
