The Liverpool and S.W. Lancs FHS would like to thank Barbara Williams for her permission to reproduce this list.

With thanks to Marj Kohli who has looked up the childrens names in Canadian Databases & linked them to the children who were "emigrated" to Canada

Barbara writes, "Where I have put a question mark (not many) is where I am not 100% sure of the spelling or place." Information added in square brakets in the "Occupation" column are matches found in the National Archives Home Children Database.
