I am looking for the descendants, as I have the ancestral family in Ireland. 

I thank all those who provided clues for me to look as I now have more than when I started. 
Thanks to everyone

Thank you very much

Living descendants would be the best, but any descendants will work.

His mother died in 1895 as I have her death announcement card that was sent her sister my great grandmother.

Thank you to all who welcomed me to this site and responded. 

 I research British Home Children in Canada regardless of the sending/receiving organization. 

I have been working for 25 years on these girls.  In 1997, I got the three files from Barnardos After Care.  I am aware of their lives in Canada until 1920 when Florence returned to England and Caroline was past the age of reporting to Mrs. Birt organization.

I was hoping the GRO database would assist in narrowing down my search, but I can not find registrations for the three sisters with the same surname for the mother. 

Possible birth dates from their files are Florence 10 May 1899, Caroline 12 March 1900, Annie 4 April 1904.  There was a note on Annie's file that there was no CoE baptism for her.

I have found the entry of Florence and Caroline into the Board of Guardians Kensington school in September 1904, leading to suspicion that their mother might have died.  For some period before May 1909 all three girls were in the same place as Annie, my grandmother, described her sisters and always knew their names. 

Any assistance on their life before Canada would be great.  Also I am trying to find Caroline's married name and did she have a family.

I wish to thank all who responded. 

The parents William Burgess and Katie Arnold of these two boys Thomas and William also had two daughters who remained in England.  Beatrice born Dec 1893  in 1901census she is in Nazarath House and Alice born Dec 1899 in 1901 census she is with the Arnold family.  Katie died Dec 1899. 

The boys were in Abby Hose in Romsey in 1911 census before coming to Canada.  Also St Joseph's school. 

I am trying to find the Board of Guardian records if possible for these two boys.  And any information about their life in England. 

I know the sons of John Burgess and they are aware of the daughter of their uncle Thomas. 

I thank everyone who has welcomed me and offered information.  I would appreciate clues as where to look for more information in England.
Gloria

I would like information both before they went to Canada and what happened to them after 1917.  I am trying to find a name for the parents.  Florence file notes mother as Eliza nothing more. 

Florence was sent back to England in September 1920.  Caroline remained in Canada but have nothing on where she was after 1917. 

I know of Annie,s life in Canada
