On Ancestry they are mistranscribed as Slaydon!

and the 12 year olds name has been crossed out but it is a daughter and I think it might be Rosa?

Hi Kerry again,

Thank you very much for that info., Earnest is the one I was looking for mainly but the others bits I can pass on.

Earnest went into "Barnados" after his mother died then to Canada as a "Homeboy".

That's a pleasure Barry.

One of my aunts started as a nurse at a Barnados home when she left school in the 50s.  She tells some wonderful stories about Matron!

Barry.

Do you know for a fact that he went to Barnado's?

It's just that there was a massive orphange/childrens home in Ashley Down, Bristol known as Muller's
