Heritage Open Days at Quebec House in London on 13 September 2026 will explore the story of a foundling boy left at the London Foundling Hospital in 1758. The free event examines his journey from infancy to an unknown future.
On 10 April 1758, a baby boy was left in the care of the London Foundling Hospital. From the humblest of beginnings, this small child, who never knew his parents, grew up to father a family that now encircles the globe.
Come and hear how, through tireless family history research, his story came to light as told by one of his descendants, Helen Warren. This talk is part of Quebec House's Heritage Open Days programme, ‘Our Place, Your Past’.
