Are there any records that cover children of these orphanages in the London area for 1881 or 1891 census. I have been told that my ggf born 1875 was an orphan of one of the homes in the London area. Unfortunately I don't know which and realise there are many of these but if someone could point me to record sets that would be great. |

Oh Wow this is news to me as when we enquired about 4/5 years ago re my FIL they didnt charge anything for the search. They didnt find him though so no idea if they would have wanted money for his records had he been in Barnardos |

Shirl - yes was a shock so am umming and erring. I am lucky enough to know of my gt. grandfather and have a photo and his marriage and death cert so at least I have something but am really pondering whether one can really justify the money that may, and only may, lead me one step further back in the tree to carry on with. |
