NotesSent with brother Ernest and sister Elizabeth. I have been told (but don't know the accuracy) that she remembered being taken from her mother who was in a wheelchair. Was in Home Of Industry, 29 Bethnal Green Rd. - a MacPherson home and sent to Stratford. Went to a family with a farm - I believe in St. Mary's area. I've heard that the family adopted Ernest, but not the girls and that their life was not easy. I would like to try and learn more.
