In 1884, Ruth Sink, 10 (along with sisters, Beatrice Sink, 7; and Annie Sink, 5), arrived at Quebec, Canada, in a group of Middlemore children en route to various destinations.

"Sixteenth Annual Report of the Local Government Board, 1886-87; Copy of Reports of Inspection of Children sent out to Canada, as of February 12, 1887.

Report of Mr. John Smith, Government Immigration Agent at Hamilton, Ontario.

Ruth Link, aged 10, from Guildford Union, placed with Mrs. Sarah Muir (widow), farmer, Flesherton Station, Ontario. Remained nine months with Mrs. Muir; being a great source of trouble through being in such bad health, and troubled with urinal affection, weak bowels, and skin disease, she was returned to the Guthrie Home, London. Mrs. Muir reports her as a remarkably quick intelligent child, but stubborn."
