Find Ancestors

Ah, well I have been given this info by a distant relative, I know I have all the right people because I have traced them back to my Mum, from Joseph and Elizabeths line

I have Joseph and Elizabeths marriage cert which I sent to the the records office for.

I didnt know Joseph had remaried until last week when I made contact on another site through a shared family tree.

That will teach me for not researching properly, only thing is I didnt seem to be able to tie things in. The Helms are all Josephs for generations!

I am not finding a Death for Elizabeth and the children they had together are not with Joseph and his new wife in later Census so I would say they are with there mother Elizabeth.

Hi allotment,

Fredrick Alfred born in 1882 is the brother of my great great Grandfather Joseph John Helm who was born in 1869.
Their mother was Elizabth Helm nee Staddon


Susan Lizzy Helm would be the daughter of the second marriage of Joseph James to Charlotte.

On the 1891 census where Joseph 66 and his sons Joseph 18 and Thomas 17 were employed as painters could be my Helms. All the Josephs were house painters for a few generations. and all first born Sons called Joseph.

Thelma, im not sure if the Joseph and Emma are the same as the spelling is different but thank you for looking.

Teresa

I just wanted to say thankyou to you all for your help today, The helms are a difficult lot to find and doesnt help because everyone is called Joseph. Joseph James seemed to like the name so much he called his first born Joseph from his first marriage in in 1891 and his last bornJosep from his second marrige,!!

I was confused and you have helped iron out some of the puzzle :)

Teresa.

Cooper, the Lizzie Helm (born 1877) on the 1891 census is more likely to be the Elizabeth Helm, aged 4 years on the 1881 census with father Joseph, mother Elizabeth and siblings Joseph, Thomas and Lily. I don't think that she is the daughter of Joseph and Charlotte.

Hi thanks rootsgatherer
