My grandfather was born in New York City, possibly at the New York Foundling Hospital. He went to McIntire, Iowa on an Mercy/Orphan train. He lived with Patrick and Anna Moran but no evidence of an adoption exists. Christmas of 1905 he received a letter from Sister Theresa from the New York Foundling Home. Dear Sir, In reply to your letter, I must say that you were placed under our care when only eight days old and since that time no inquiry has ever been made concerning you which I think is a proof that you had no relatives. Now do not let this worry you many children are left without their parents. Will you send me Howard McTighe’s address he wrote I think two years and his letter was never answered. I must write and will be grateful for the addresses. Any time you care to write we will be happy to write you. Be faithful to your religious duties and God will bless you. Wishing you all the joys of a Happy Xmas and a most successful New Year, I am Sincerely yours, Sister Teresas Vincent
