Mary's Training School, at Desplaines, Illinois, has sheltered within its buildings orphans left without means of support by the death of one or both parents, and children whose parents were unable to give them the necessities of life. In one case, the child lived with his mother but his surname was changed to match that of her subsequent husband, his stepfather. Some of these individuals were not literally orphans – defined as a person whose parents were both deceased. These include children who were adopted from orphanages, raised by a relative with a different surname, lived in the house of someone to whom their relationship is not known, or any number of other situations. This database is about individuals who were raised by someone with a different surname than their own. Submitted by Dawne Slater-Putt, CG NOTES: Sign up for our FREE monthly e-mail alert
