Hello Linda
Thanks for your interest perhaps then it might be an idea to look at Union Workhouse records in Bury St Edmunds.
Do you know if all abandoned children were put into the Workhouse or were there other places as well?
I have found him in the 1901 Census living as an 11 year old lodger in Bury St Edmunds seems a little young to be living as a lodger perhaps he was working for the head of the household?
I would be grateful for any other suggestions you may have.
Margaret
