Annie 10 F SS Sardinian 1891 Stone Charles 8 M SS Sardinian 1889 Thomas Sally 7 F SS Sardinian 1889 Walsh Lizzie F SS Circassian 1890 All were sent to Mr. Wallace, Marchmont Distributing Home, Belleville, Canada. Some were accompanied by Gertrude Laver, Matron; Lizzie Walsh, domestic, and Katie Kye, domestic. Others were accompanied by a Miss Leech, Matron. This is just a 3 year search. Washwell House, Painswick, Gloucester, run by Gyde Charities. In the 1881 census, I do not find it as an orphanage - appears (to me) to be just a residence with the Wemyss sisters as residents. I am looking for James Henry Wellesley Beattie, sent 1888 to Marchmont, also from Painswick. Hope this helps someone. Sheila Beatty Alexander Arkansas, USA
