| Description | Indexed. Entries are in order of committee meetings (i.e. in approximate order of boarding out date). Placements appear to be mainly in Warwickshire, Worcestershire, Staffordshire and Wolverhampton, but there are also some as far afield as Cambridgeshire, Lincolnshire and Eastbourne.
Columns are: entry no.; details of child: surname, Christian names, date of birth, sex, religious persuasion; details of foster parents: surname, Christian names, address, religious persuasion; date boarded out; type of placing (short/long term, etc.); where child previously living; care authority or voluntary organisation by whom boarded out; by whom supervised; care authority (where child in care boarded out by voluntary organisation) [in other volumes this heading has been crossed out and replaced with 'area authority notified', and it seems that this is what is being recorded here as the column contains dates]; date boarding out ceased; reason for cessation; remarks. |
