In 1921, Wilfred Perring, 12, arrived at Quebec, Canada, in a group of 134 Barnardo children en route to Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He declared that his intended occupation was to do farm work; that he was born in Devon, England; that his passage was paid by Dr. Barnardo's Homes; that he was destined to his friend, Mr. J. W. Hobday, 50-52 Peter Street, Toronto, Ontario, Canada; that his nearest relation was his mother, Mrs. Mabel Adams, 8, Gillwell Cottages, W., Plymouth, England.

Wilfred was first placed with Fred William Gubbins, Walkers, Metcalfe, Middlesex, Ontario, Canada.

PERRING, Wilfred, 12 . . . 1921 Barnardo's, 1922-25 in Middlesex Co with Fred Gubbins in Walkers; 1926-27 with John Campbell in Walkers. "Very satisfactory boy. No complaints."
