There's a listing of Home children who were sent to Canada here:

http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/databases/index-e.html

Scroll down to "Home Children" under "Exploration & Setllement" then click on "Immigration Records Search" and enter the name.

If you look on the Find Ancestors board (that's what you're trying to do, right, find ancestors?) you will see a post pinned at the top that gives instructions for posting search requests. It's a good idea to read that first.

It points out that you should give complete information to start with. For example, nobody can help you find someone without a name as the very first thing, then some dates and places.

A Barnardo's child of an age to be your grandfather isn't likely alive now, but if he is, be sure you have his permission to post information about him.

People can't answer hypothetical questions, usually. Your question, whether someone can help you, can only be answered by trying to find the actual information! ;)

Is he still alive?
