Seeking intake & release card for Patrick & WIlliam Skeffington

patricia skeffington Feb 9, 2021 3:48 PM

I am looking for the intake and release cards from Mt Loretto Orphanage in Staten Island for Patrick and William Skeffington. They entered the orphanage probably in 1918; they were definitely there in 1925 since they were so listed on the 1925 NY State Census. I am also interested in learning more about what life was like for children in Mt Loretto during this period.

Dear Ms. Skeffington,

Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!

Please contact the Catholic Charities of Staten Island, located at Mount Loretto for information regarding former residents of the Mt. Loretto Orphanage in Staten Island

We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your research!

  Thank you for your help. I contacted the organization you mentioned, and they were able to send me the information on my father. They refused to send my uncle's information citing privacy concerns, despite my being a next-of-kin and it being 50 years since his death. I will follow up on that, though. Again, thank you for your help.
