NotesIn 1891, William Blackburn, 32, wife Mary A, 33, and children Walter, 7, and George, 2, Charlotte, 3, in Lewisham, London

In 1901, Will Blackburn, 66, wife Annie, 39, and children Nicholas, 30, Adlaida, 26, Maud, 23, and adopted sons Walter Blackburn, 17, and George Blackburn, 11, in Tudor and Cashel, Hastings, Ontario

Sent by Lewisham Union, placed with William Blackburn, Bannockburn, Hastings, Ontario

December 4 1902

Age 13, very satisfactory home, employed at chores, attends Methodist Church, good character, terms-still board, clothing and schooling. Blackburn suits his place. He was a very delicate lad when he arrived here, I am told, but is now greatly improved. His brother is here also, and the two boys are treated as members of the family. He is making satisfactory progress.
