Orphanages 1900

Submitted by Goldhillreeve on Fri, 02/12/2021 - 03:26

Do you know which orphanages were open in Hong Kong in 1900? My grand mothe Elizabeth Alice Grimble and her 3 siblings were orphaned in 1900 when their father (Joseph Robert Grimble) died and we believe they entered an orphanage. We would therefore like to see if there are any records of them.

It might be worth applying to the Italian Canossian Convent. Other orphans mentioned on this site were educated there, including cousins of mine. The convent has wonderful records.
