Hi.. I'm not sure even if the archives office even have registers for this but I'm looking for someone that was in a children's home in Sheffield but I'm not sure which one.. So I suppose if they have these records it's a case if checking each one... I would also like to know which school this person went to then I can search other avenues like forums etc... He was born 1865 and his name is Anthony Higgins... Pls can anyone help me find any information possible... I'm thinking if I can't find him which I have not done so far then I may find someone who knew him and knows where he went.. So the school or children's home he went to could be a great advantage.. Thank you

Hi, Wendy -

As you have posted this in the "Find Living Relatives" board, do you mean he was born in 1965, and not 1865 as you have stated?

If you do mean 1965, perhaps you could enquire here:
