Does anyone know if they exist, where records for children who were placed in this Orphange are kept? I'm trying to help a distant relation who lives in Kent, her father and his brother were placed there in the 1940's, thier sister wasn't but was adopted out, not sure if she knew so not sure whether we should dig up that can of worms, but we thought maybe if the childrens records were available it may mention something in them that may help find her, thanks a lot Claire :)

Hello Rowan,
I just came across this message feed as i was looking for information on my mothers past, specifically details on when she was in Josiah Masons orphanage, and noticed that you may have been able to help Claire find similar information. If you are able to help source this information, i would be very grateful if you could point me in the right direction. Many Thanks, Stuart
