More likely is that Goodwin got news of these children back quickly, and because of how important they were deemed, they were sent to be taken very quickly.

This is a good list of lists though. I think the MASTER LIST or Jacob's List is essentailly a list of all the people who can be recruited, brainwashed, like Cindy. People like Locke and Kate are flawed so they aren't on the list and can't be brainwashed. But the list is NOT definitive, it's not black and white, because Goodwin argued that Anna Lucia should be put on the list, and while Jack wasn't on the list he has still been brainwashed.
