Hi Margaret, it sounds as if you are correct and that Helena married again, it would be unusual for two Helena's to be born the same year and area. Helena wasn't a common name even then. Have just checked the 1881 Census and she went by the name Court and they lived at 83 Chorlton Road, Lancs. |

Could Helena have reverted to her maiden name of Kershaw and remarried? |

The closest one on the 1891 census is Henry J. Court born 1840, Folkestone. He's a hotel manager with a wife, Eliza and 2 stepdaughters, Lucy and Florence Haynes. |

Henry James Court B1839 Folkestone. He was married to Helena and both on 1861/1871 Census. In 1881 both living seperately Helena Court with brother Joseph Kershaw and sister Sarah Kershaw at 83 Cheriton Road, Folkestone. Henry was living with a Sarah down as his wife but no record of marriage and wife very much alive. I am interested in finding out what happened to them both in 1891/1901. Any help would be appreciated. |
