All were sent to Mr. Wallace, Marchmont Distrib. Home, Belleville,
Canada.
Some were accompanied by Gertrude Laver, Matron or a Miss Leech, Matron.

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.

Hope this helps someone. If anyone has any further information, please
send.

Researching: James Henry Wellesley Beattie (Beatie, etc.) sent from
Painswick to
Marchmont Distrib. Home, Belleville, in 1888.
