The collection includes information about:
There are also some photographs of Children's Homes in the collection.
A highlight of the collection is an Access database which contains the names of some of the children who lived in these Children's Homes. The database was created from information in the Uniting Church restricted collection held in the Private Archives in Battye Library, including admission and discharge registers. The database does not have a 'complete' set of information for each child.
Access to these records is restricted to protect the privacy of individuals. You are very welcome to enquire.
We do not currently have any records linked to this organisation, but records may exist. The Find & Connect Support Service can help people who lived in orphanages and children's institutions look for their records.
