Subject: [ORPHANAGES] More on Painswick Emigration Home
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

The latest regarding the Painswick Emigration Home:
[The following was sent to Sheila Beatty from John Bailey of the
Painswick Local History Society, March 12, 2001.]
[From The Painswick Parish Magazine, November, 1891]
"Our readers will be interested in the following letter written by Miss
Gertrude Laver, who has just returned to England after taking the
Emigrant Children to Canada.
Wells Road, Bath
Sept. 1891.
Dear Miss Wemyss,
You will think I have quite forgotten to write to you, but this is not
the case. Perhaps you have heard about all the children being placed
out from Mr. and Mrs. Wallace, as they are away for their holidays they
may not have written though. Well I have so much to tell you I hardly
know which topic to commence upon. However, good news is most
desirable, so I will tell you of dear little Maud Denning's
destination. Soon after my arrival I was sent with several children,
who were going to their new homes, as far as Ottawa: so as I had a few
hours there I visited some of your children in whom I was much
interested, especially dear little Ida Keand, now Lily Benson, she has
grown very much and such a darling. During my conversation with Mr.
Benson, he enquired if we had a little girl suitable for adoption, but
she must have "light hair and blue eyes," as a friend of his had been
wishing for a nice little girl; I then told him of Maudie. In a few
days after my return to the Home, I received a letter from the
gentleman, Mr. Pyke, to whom he referred, asking for a full description
of her. The next week he wrote for me to take her up on a visit, which
I was delighted to do, as she was quite a little pet of mine. On our
arrival at Ottawa we were met by Mr. Pyke and Mr. Benson. The former
then introduced Mrs. Pyke, a very nice lady, who was sitting in a
splendid new close carriage, a fine horse, and coachman in livery (all
this their own). After a nice drive we reached their private residence,
a splendid house, and so beautifully furnished. What a change for dear
little "Maudie." They were delighted with her, and at once decided to
adopt her as their own (having no children of their own after 19 years),
on account of her sweet disposition and pleasant manner, though not
possessing light hair; and begged me to send them full details of her
parents, if living, etc. The same day I also took Millie Sansome to her
new home at Smith's Falls. Her "Ma" has already adopted other children
from the Home, and it is a very nice comfortable place, with everything
to make her happy. Mr. and Mrs. Millingan are good Christian people.
Dear Miss Wemyss, am afraid you will be tired e'er this, but I feel you
will be almost, if not quite, as interested in these dear little ones as
myself. Arthur Coates and Johnny Hillard are still in the Home; also
Harry Morris, the little one sent out by Miss Anna Annie Lewis.
Elizabeth Chant and Walter Lee are doing very nicely; Alfred Derrett was
not quite satisfactory, though improving, no doubt you have heard of his
case. I hope you and dear Miss Alice are quite well. I will enclose
you a letter from Charlie Nye to Mrs. Wallace, who thought you would
like to see it. Would you kindly tell me where or how I might get some
information relating to Maud Denning.
I remain,
Sincerely yours,
Annie Gertrude Laver"
Sheila's notes (NA refers to National Archives online database for Home
Children):
- Miss Wemyss is Harriett Wemyss of Washwell House. Miss Alice is her
sister. Founded the Painswick Emigration Home which was run by Mrs.
Eliza Steele. Sent children from at least 1886 to at least 1891.
- Gertrude Laver accompanied children to Canada in 1890 and 1891 (why
would she be writing to Miss Wemys from Bath? Was that her home? How
did they connect?)
- Maud Denning is Maud Dunning in NA
- Ida Keand not found in NA
- Millie Sansome is Milly Samson in NA
- Arthur Coates is A. Coo? in NA (to be corrected per D.L.)
- Johnny Hillard is possibly Johnnie Mullard in NA
- Harry Morris not found in NA
- Elizabeth Chant is Annie Shant? in NA
- Walter Lee in NA
- Alfred Derrett is H Darritt? in NA
- Charles Nye in NA

This message is for Carol A Langley.
I was looking over the note that you placed on Orphanages. I noticed that one of the names you were researching was BARTLING. I am
doing research on this name also and in the two years that I have been researching, you are the only other person that I have come
across researching the BARTLING name. I can't even find it on surname lists. Please write me back. My email address is
. I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks,
Christina Graff
