« on: Monday 16 November 20 15:47 GMT (UK) »
i have just found out that two of my uncles and one aunt were put into an orphanage in 1911 after their father died.
           
They were rc.  i only know of Biddy Smileys. Does anybody know of any others where they would have ended up.  Also is it possible to find their records.    Thanking you in advance
