Query Text: |
I am searching for the adoptive family of my great grandmother Laura Ellsworth Britton,estimated birth date is 1862 New York,in the 1900 census Laura states that she does not know her age or who her parents are and that she is from the Foundling Asylum of New York (also known as the Sisters of Charity).Laura migrated to Montana sometime between 1885 and 1887 from Illinois with a friend,a Miss Mary J Clarke of Indiana also born in Indiana and Mary's parents are from New York.I believe Laura was put on an orphan train to Illinos around 1869 and was either adopted or worked in servitude for a family named BRITTON,in later years her daughter mentions Laura was from Kankakee,Illinos and there was a family member in Illinois in the early 1960's.I am unable to go much further until I have something more.So all you Illinos Britton's please stand up. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
