Description | Content |
Article description: (description) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Guardianship proceedings occurred when minor children were orphaned or when only the father or "bread winner" died. The mother was allowed to retain guardianship if officials considered her circumstances sufficient to provide for the children. Another person appointed as guardian may have been a relative, a friend of the family, or one who could teach the minor(s) a trade. In some cases guardians or administrators were appointed to handle the affairs of adults who were deemed incompetent. |
