In 1902, Archibald Goodall, 14, arrived at Quebec, Canada, in a group of 40 Roman Catholic children from the Liverpool Catholic Children?s Protection Society, 99 Shaw Street, Liverpool, Lancashire, England, and en route to 11 St. Thomas Street, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. (SUBMITTERS NOTE: Archibald was actually one of five Shaftesbury "Old Boys" from the Shaftesbury farm/school in Surrey. Shaftesbury used other agencies to transport their boys abroad when they were ready. They were escorted by an Anglican group called the SPCK (Society for the Propagation of Christian Knowledge) to Shaftesbury receiving homes in Canada. The particular party of which my grandfather was a part were sent to a farm near Ingersoll, Ontario where some were later sent on to Winnipeg and assigned to farms in that area. Some were assigned to farms in Ontario and some to the prairies.)
