RE:Home Children Retrieval of Records from Britain
For those of you looking for answers at the Library & Archives Canada and wish to access the Microfilms they have on loan from Barnardos this may answer a few questions. I asked Barnardos and if you are a descendant looking for information about their ancestor who was a home child Barnardos will not give you permission access the microfilms at the Library and Archives in Ottawa. The microfilms are considered PRIVATE. This is what was written to me....
«Thank you for your email. The records held are private records and not public records and therefore permission will not be granted to view any microfilms held by either the National Archives or Barnardo's. To gain access to a particular record you will need to come through us here at Barnardo's.
To have copies of John Jones’s records you will need to purchase them through us here at Barnardo's for the fee stated. The microfilms held at the National Archives are the same as those held here and the N.A. and they do not have permission to release them without our consent which we do not give to relatives.»
This is probably why the person from Library & Archives Canada informed me via e-mail to get in touch with Barnardos. Mystery solved.
