The Register of Children Admitted and Discharged from the Male and Female Orphan School gives the child’s name, age, date admitted, parents’ names and ships of arrival, dates of removal, and religions. It includes general remarks. In general, boys and girls were entered at opposite ends of the book. However young boys were indexed and listed in the girls’ register.
