Just received this information and thought some might be interested. I am writing to let you know that the following 1900 US Federal Census orphan listings for your areas have been transcribed and uploaded at my website: St. Vincent's Orphan Asylum, Onondaga County, New York St. Vincent's Home (poorhouse with orphan lodgers as well), Borough of Brooklyn, Kings County, New York St. Patrick's Orphanage, Jefferson County, New York. The 1900 listing for the Saratoga Home for Children, Saratoga County, is yet outstanding but due back in to me any day now. These lists can be accessed by clicking on the lower right hand window of the Orphans' Home on my homepage; a map of the U.S. will come up --- users should then click on the state of New York, then on 1900, then on either Orphanages or Poorhouses (depending on list sought), then on the name of the institution. The URL for my website is: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~orphanshome (give this site time to load) My website is the Orphans' Home Website and is fairly new (Feb. 2001). It is the goal at this site to aid orphan genealogists by providing transcriptions of orphan listings from both censuses and rosters; there are also two message boards at my site and areas where Orphanage Facts, and Success stories/tips can be collected and uploaded for researchers. All contributions of lists, transcriptions, and information to my site are welcome. In turn, if any of you have webpages of your own with information you feel would be helpful to orphan genealogists, please let me know and I will be glad to add a link to your site(s) to my own pages. Also, if you plan to add orphanage sections to your own webpages, please let me know in order that I can pass on to you any information that may come my way that is useful for researchers but not in line with the goals and purpose of my own site. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
