have found my grandad George Goodwin on 1901 census listed as inmate in institution. The institution being St. ann & Joseph orphanage in Orpington Kent. I have sent 4 emails during the past few months to the Holy Innocents church asking for info, all of which remain unanswered. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. diana . [email protected]

Hi, Try writing snail mail and enclose a SAE. Or contact the county record office to see if any records have been deposited. Gwynne
