Thank you both, that's what I thought. I was so hoping to have some

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Help with St. Mary's Home New Bedford, MA

['John Raposo' via Azores Genealogy]

 Back in that time period it was a home for orphans and for children whose 
parents couldn't provide for them. In the latter case parents might visit on a 
Sunday, etc. 

In the 1970 and eighties, it was a residential treatment program for troubled 
children. After it closed the building was used for a pre-release program and a 
prison diversion program for incarcerated women with a history of substance 
abuse.

This explains why she got married so early. She was 17, her husband 22. In
the 1930 census she lived with her husband, young brother in law and her
father in law, her mother in law had passed away. Chances are that she
needed to take care of them all, so sad!

I'm not sure if Children's Aid exists anymore. If it does, it's on the east
coast of America. In California, we have only the Department of Welfare and
Child Services (or something like that) and it's foster care. Every state
in America deals with the children somewhat differently today. In the past,
they basically farmed them out as child (slave) labor. Very sad.

Here in Canada, the Children’s Aid Society is the organization that
protects children from abusive situations. They sometimes remove the
children from their home and place them in foster care until whatever
issues the parents are having get revolved.

I think the Children's Aid Society was an east coast thing and when they
got too many kids, they started shipping them out all over the U.S. on
Orphan Trains. Basically child labor. I know for sure it wasn't a western

Cheri, those search results are what I had seen before, just a couple of
pictures and a bunch of Ancestry message board posts of people asking if
anybody has any information.

Sorry, I thought CAS was the same in the US, it’s the Children’s Aid
Society.

What is CAS? Depending on where you live, acronyms can have so many
meanings. It's always best to take your time and spell these things out to
avoid confusion.

Using quotes in a search is helpful. I did "st mary's home" "new bedford"
just like that:
https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d=%22st+mary%27s+home%22+%22new+bedford%22

It appears it was an orphanage.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Help with St. Mary's Home New Bedford, MA

[Leonor Bertoni]

Hello all,
I found a 1920 census for St. Mary's Home, my cousin's wife lived there 
when she was a child (9 years old). I have tried to search for information 
but have been unsuccessful, I found a picture but nothing else. Does anyone 
have any info? I imagine it was a home for children whose parents couldn't 
care for them but was it an adoption centre, just temporary care or 
something like CAS?

TIA.
