The British Home Children database is "open for business" :)
You can find it by clicking on the link at the bottom of any RootsChat page:
» Reference Library (http://surname.rootschat.com/lexicon/) and then clicking on
» Database for Special Interest Groups DBSIG (http://surname.rootschat.com/lexicon/dbsig/index.php) and selecting British Home Children
There is a Help page too,
direct link: http://surname.rootschat.com/lexicon/dbsig/dbsig-help.php?dbsig_num=1&show=gi#gi
(some of the images need renewing, but the basic details are all there)
Over 21000 records have been added from the original database, so before adding your data, please search it carefully, to see if your records are already there.
If you find any records of your ancestors (or research interests), you can add yourself to the list of researchers for this person, add comments to the record, and contact the submitter per PM.
If there is no submitter (e.g. original database) then please post here, on this topic,
or contact the Data Coordinators.
