My father and three siblings were bought up in the Ashford Residential home . he was put there as a two year old in 1927. i have been on old school friends to no avail . is there anyone here that may know something of the pupils at this school . he was there as James(jimmy ) Wharton 2 years old , with two older sisters and another older  brother Arthur .i think . he left to go to  war 16years later . thanks for any ideas ..

This may have been West London District School in Ashford?  LMA (London Metropolitan Archives) has a register of children there going up to 1931.

http://www.workhouses.org.uk/index.html?WestLondonSD/WestLondonSD.shtml - here it is labelled on the map as 'Ashford Residential School'

http://www.missing-you.net/NoInfo.php?startnum=28320 - there is someone listed here who was there from 1945.

You're going to need a lot of luck to find someone - but if you find a list of names of those who were there with him in 1927, you might be able to locate their children or grandchildren.  Are you trying to track what happened his siblings as well?
