My great-grandfather was one of the train children sent out of New York who was sent to Ohio in the late 1800's when he was 10 years old. His 9 year old brother was sent with him and he went on to Texas. My great-grandfather was removed from the the train in Ohio so consequently on my father's side, we can't trace our ancestors any further back than that. There all sorts of books out there on the Train Children and it was a sad point in our nation's history.
