Notes
First exhibited in the fall of 1920 under the titles Our Christianity and Nobody's Child and Our Christianity and Nobody's Children, this black production was renamed Nobody's Children and was first exhibited under that title on December 22, 1920. Contemporary sources alternately refer to one of the cast members as Jacques Farmer and Jacque Farmer. Modern sources state that in order to free his sister, the protagonist kills the stepfather's gangster crony as well as the stepfather, and is arrested for both killings.
