Norfolk / Fostering 1915 to 1917
« on: Tuesday 17 October 23 15:33 BST (UK) »
Hello,
To all,hoping i can get some advice on what i am loking for.
My Aunt Ethel Edna Hearn Page was born in KingsLynn 25/10/1915,no father recorded,her mothers name was Ethel Page.(Hotel Waitress).My query is ,in 1916 or 17 Ethel was fostered out to a family of farm servants in Fife or Angus Scotland,i have been trying so hard to find out how Ethel landed up so far from her birth place,the family (my grandparents)had no connection with England at all or with Ethels mother or her family.My thoughts are with the Presbyterian Church could they be the ones that transported Ethel up to Scotland?as my Grandparents were very much into the church,and also taking in fatherless children(my dad included).
I truly hope that my plea for guidance can be answered.
Thank you for reading.
