Orphanage in Trois Rivieres?

Question

Can someone tell the name of the orphanage in Trois Rivieres that was operated by nuns back in the 60's.

Answer 1

Hi

The sisters of charity of providence ran 4 orphanages in Trois Rivieres at that time

And the Dominican sisters of the rosary ran 1.

This data is available in the Catholic Directory of the time

Also there was quite a scandal in orphanage care in Quebec at that time, with a famous polititian being linked with the name Duplessis Orphans

I hope this helps
