iam happy that now we let if you  get adopted  and you have siblings  we let  you stay together. I agree  with  the  idea that we have aunts and uncles   to help with  adoption and you  don’t get adoption to a stranger.   Think that the orphan  train was a good idea  at that time  but i also think that it was a good idea to do foster care now so  i  think the orphan  train was good  for them not for us . I don’t like that if you were a orphan   train rider  you might get  adopted by a total stranger.   

There were over  15,000 homeless children  in the eastern coast. The orphan  train went from  1854 –   1929.   some people started a children’s  aid  society. The orphan train  started at bron and ended at  midwest and west.  there were over   30,00 abandon children in  the eastern coast.                  

beginning

My  name is Victoria. I was  born a slave.  i started   my life in Florida.   my job was to take  care   of the  kids.    when i was  9. they didn’t give us  slaves that much of food   the only family i have is  my friend   Bella. I don’t know that much of my parents,siblings,cousins,aunts,uncles, or grandparents.  I   don’t know at all  my 4 grandparents ,8 cousins ,5 aunts  or my 2 uncles.  my dad  got sold     before i was  even born. I never really knew my mother because she did when i was 12 years old.

so here goes my story

I was in the nursery  wis 11 year old Lucy, 10 year old grace, 6 year old chloe and3 year old  micah   when i offer herd master ross and mrs.  ross   talking about selin  me and Bella. i whent to tell Bella that we were  gonna get sold.  Lucy asked  me are you and Bella  gonna   be ok  Victoria  i think so Lucy.  when grace,chloe and micah  got back from school they jumped   on me    and helped me   pack to escape   whis Bella.

ESCAPE

Bella and me jumped  out a window   in the big house  we look for the north star and started  whacking  away  it was dark  and  the dogs were  burcin  Bella snsd i said quiet they mit her us  and bring  us back home  it got to be morning we hid in a hole in the ground   all day  long  it got to be night and we got out of the hole  and started to walk i heard a  sound like water i told Bella  that i heard water   we    both started to ran  to the sound when we  got to the  water we jumped in and started to run Bella sol  a cave   and Bella sed Victoria we cud hid  her for the day.    when we   got up for the night  a man was standing  by me and Bella.  come with me said the man   i said hello sir i  am victoria and this is Bella my  friend. hello said the man i am andrew george  simon  and later  a woman  came  andrew said this is my wife isabella marie simon and my 3 kids  sofia may simon and samuel  nolan  simon and   jane elizabeth simon  andrew said  come to my home and stay there and tomorrow  i will take   you  to   canada.
