Hi

Where did you get the names for female Helliwell's that you have already in your tree? Are these females siblings of Ernest? Or are these not connected to this part of the Helliwell family?

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 31 Dec 2007 14:53

My mum remembers Aunty florry so this is Ernest sister

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 31 Dec 2007 14:59

My mum also remembers Ethel and Mary which are Ernests siblings but she says there was another girl but she does not know what her name is.
