Her story was inspired by the children transported by train from the streets of New York City to the farms in the Midwest. Between 1854 and 1929 over 200,000 orphans rode those trains. So sad but true. You can read Rose's story on Ebay

Hey Shirley!

Thanks for visiting my Regarding Jamie post. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Being a child at my house was magical - not perfect mind you but magical, especially during the holidays. That was a time that everyone got into.

I loved being little! Thankfully I haven't matured too much! LOL

I love your dolls and the stories behind them, just wonderful!
