NotesA birth registration was found for William Ewen: Year of Registration: 1887; Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec; District: Lambeth; County: Greater London, London, Surrey; Volume: 1d
Page: 408. Mother: Emily Ewen.

William Ewen was admitted to Norwood School, Lambeth Union on July 6, 1893 from Wandsworth & Clapham Union; discharged December 19, 1898. He was readmitted to the Lambeth Workhouse on July 31, 1899; discharged to Norwood School, Lambeth Union, August 3, 1899. Mother Emily (Ewen) was in the Renfrew Road Workhouse at this time.

William was discharged to Barnardo's Home on August 1, 1900.

In 1900, William Ewan, 11, arrived at Quebec, Canada, in a group of 101 Barnardo boys en route to Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Placed with Andrew Lyons, Portland, Leeds, Ontario

November 14 1902

Age 14, comfortable home, empoyed at choring and waits on Mr Lyons who is blind, healthy, attends Church of England, not regularly, however, - good character. Terms-$100 on April 1 1906 and two years schooling. Ewans appearance is very satisfactory. He is a superior looking little chap. The lad assures me that he has always been treated with kindness and consideration by his employer. He attended school during the winter months and was frequently head boy in his form-a thoroughly truthful and reliable lad.
