Would have thought it was only Gertrude that was sent as the elder siblings would be too old come 1906 to go into a childrens homes. I believe Barnardos have the Middlemore Homes data so you could apply to them for her file

Hi,
I was told some of my Ancestors were sent to Canada in the early 1900`s after their mother died in 1906 and some were
taken into care.I don`t know which ones though.
These are the names of the children in the family.
Henry Reddall born 1888
Benjamin Reddall born 1889
Harold Reddall born 1890
Gertrude Reddall born 1896
Can anyone check on the passenger lists to Canada please.
Thankyou
Carol
