Lost Children
This is the start of a list of children for whom we have not yet been able to locate records. Hopefully somebody will someday come looking for them and the will be claimed within their family once again.
- Scottish Quarrier's Home child: Agnes A Chisholm 1881-1964 buried in the Cantley Protestant Cemetery in Gatineau Quebec under the name of "Pidgeon". She apparently never married, and I would expect one would not be able to find her by searching her Chisholm name.
