After spending 4 miserable years at AGO,you would think that I would hate to even think of it.Time does strange things.Nostalgia has overcome me, and now I have mostly fine memories of the kids and of Sister Georgiana,despite the fact that I got plenty of beatings form her. I started playing a cornet under Sr Sylvester, and now almost 60 years later,I still dabble at playing trumpet in our community band.Who would have thunk it.

angel guardian was the good, the bad and the ugly. high school was good as we had some of the best
sports facalities in chicago. grammer school was bad as it was like junival home. some cottages were
ugly if you had sadistic nun as we had in cottage 29 but it is not the cards you were delt but how you
played your hand. blessings to all former agos

My older brother Bill and 2 younger sisters, Mary and Margie were inmates at A.G.O. from 1951 to 1953. My brother's memories of A.G.O. are not good and he will not talk of them to this day. I remember very little of my time in A.G.O. or the other 2 orphanages we spent time in. My sisters never discuss any of their experiences either. It's amazing that so many lost souls from the same institution(s) keep coming together. We are a unique bunch indeed.

I was there when I was 5yrs. old. I was only there for 6 weeks because I cried the whole time I was there.

My sister(janis) and brothers(michael and tommy)O'Reilly they were there for 6 months. It was Jan thru
June in 1952 or maybe 1953. Does anyone remember my siblings?

My sister who was 6yrs older than me used to come to the nursery to console me and each time she did she was punished and told she would be thrown out if she came to see me again. All the stories my Brothers have shared with me are so sad.

My one brother used to wet his bed(7yrs) and the nuns would make him wash them in the shower.. How
sad is this. We had no choice in being there and then not to be treated in a loving and caring way is awful. If anyone remembers my siblings THe O'Reilly's please let me know.

I am searching family history. My father's brothers and sister were here in the 1930's he ran away because he was 16 and went out on his own their last name was Serafino. Five of them Anna, Florence, Edward, Walter and George. I am trying to find the names of their parents. I know their mother's first name was Harriet and she was put into Manteno after a nervous breakdown as called in those days but I have no history or even a first name of their father. Does anyone have info or remember them and could tell me about them!

My mother, while growing up in Chicago, was best friends with Annette (Neddie) Thilmany who did stay
at the Guardian Angel. This was during the early 20's. As they grew older, they became inseparable.
I have photos of what I think is Neddie at the orphanage, but I need to know what the girls' uniforms were back then. Can anyone help me out or give me a suggestion as to where I can find this information?

Myself, my older sister Kathy and 2 of my younger brothers stayed there between the years of 1965 to 1969. My sister was on the Girls side,(gotta love that yellow line between the boys and girls), my younger brother Pat and I were in Sister Patrick's cottage (she loved the paddle with the ball on a string) not sure of the cottage number. My other younger brother Mike was in another cottage because he was much younger. I was there between the ages of 6-9.

Our eight grade classmates were the last students to leave before the closure of this great establishment. A.G.O. Wings. We didn't graudate because the Home closed in March or April, I don't remember,and we were transfered to other schools. I went to Our Lady of Victory. I was taken in by a Wonderful Gleason family and to this day they are my family for life God Bless them. I have four boys two out of college one in and one senior in high school. and a beatuiful grand-daughter Mia Eve Garcia. Wishing to hear from some of my classmates and hope everyone is good! JOE!

Hi. The DiGuida girls are all doing fine. Mary, Stephanie and I all live in the Chicago area and Lorraine
lives in Dallas. Even though our brother John was not at AGO, many of Mary and Lorraine's friends also
knew him. He's fine and living in Chicago. This is a great website. Thanks so much for creating it. We had so much fun looking at it last night. However, it was also sad to see who we've lost, especially those who served our country. Keep me posted of future reunions and I'll pass on the information to my sisters.
God bless you for keeping our memories alive. Darlene

I haven't been back to AGO in awhile. Renate Brkic has found this site so I visit from time to time to see
whats new. She and her sisters have gone to some of the reunions. But she has just came back into my
life after her daughter was born, which Emma is now 15 years and in high school and doing great. I was in cottage 43 with Marybeth Wiley and her sisters in the sixties as the were older than myself then. You have all done a great thing with these reunions. Just sometimes you can never go back home. Well my time on this computer is almost up gotta go. Thanks Christine Ramirez

My brother George Smith and I were residents at A.G.O. in the early to mid fifties. Although we were
only there a short time, would love to know if anyone remembers us. I do have a few names that may or
maynot be accurate. Mary Dumbo(???) a little oriental girl my mother would take with us on some outings. Margie Bell...in my cottage, I believe the same age as myself. Carol Johnson...also in my cottage and I think the same age. I have many pictures taken at the time also. I have lots of memories of being there. It would be nice to see what comes of this e-mail. Thank you, Pat

Hi, My 2 other sisters and I lived there in the early 70's, my sisters names are Mary Kurzweil and Liz Kurzweil. I went there for kindergarten and 1st grade. Liz was in the baby cottage and then came over to 42. It would be great to hear from anyone else that was there during the early 1970's in cottage 42. Thanks, Theresa

My grandmother and her three sisters lived at the Orphanage of and on for many years. I am doing family research and would welcome any information that anyone has. My grandmother was Elisabeth Kausemann, her sisters were Ida, Josephine, and Anna (Who's real name is Mary).

Kausemann is the true spelling of my Grandmother's last name, I am not sure when it happened, but the spelling of the name was changed to Causeman. The Orphanage records have the spellings both ways. My Great Grandparents were Charles and Nora Causeman. Real ethnic spellings are Karl Kausemann and Eleonore, this was on church records, however, otherwise she was always listed as Nora.

I would like to know more about the orphanage if someone would like to correspond with me. My Grandmother was there from about age 9-16. Prior to this they were at the Chicago Home of the Friendless, and they also spent time at the Katharine Kasper Industrial School for Girls. Regards, Julie Smith

had to eat the pells for dinner. Her name was Theresa De Rose her sister and 2 brother where also there. She said the nuns were mean.

Just to give you some background, as I was at AGO with my sisters, Darlene and Carol Kadar and my brothers Bob and Arthur Kadar during the late 50"s and early 60's. Had some horrible memories but most were very good memories, or ones I can look back on and laugh about now.

After leaving AGO went to St.Benedicts elementary school and than on to Dwight D. Eisenhower high school in Blue Island IL. and graduated in 1970, My older brother Art went to Brother Rice High School, and my sister went to Mother of Sorrows. Boy, was that a long time ago, but its one of those events in your life you never forget........thanks for letting me remember when.....................tracyk

My sister Linda & I were in Str. Carmeline's Cottage , and our brother Mike was on the boy's side .
We were the Glowers . Some of these names ring a bell - which leads me to think I was in Cottage 41 .
Does anybody recall( in the 50's) giving me permission to slip my cottage cheese on their dinner plate
on nites when they would be late to dinner after swimming ?I was thrilled to hear that because I had been putting it in my pocket on her late nites .. Norine

My mother was in Angel Guardian Orphanage in the early 1900's and she hated it. It must have changed mightily by the time the photos of the happy children were taken. I'm pleased that later residents found it
a pleasant place.
