Ernest Bambrick was raised in St. Brigid's parish in the Lowertown neighbourhood of Ottawa and served there in the 1920s as a curate. He was pastor at St. Michael's in Fitzroy Harbour where he oversaw a large church renovation. Bambrick was a tough boss who left his imprint on the parish.

A report in May 1904 by a Canadian government inspector made some serious complaints about the home. The boys all slept in a large attic accessed by a narrow staircase which would be a serious hazard in case of fire. The room was unplastered and unfurnished apart from a few camp beds. Most of the boys slept on the floor on worn-out mattresses, covered by a blanket and a quilt, with a pillow without a cover. On a hot night, the room would be 'insufferable'. It was recommended that the home's first-floor office be converted into sleeping apartments.
