Hi Tuesday50
I have nothing on disc for the 1890's at all so have had a look on Ancestry.
Have you any certificates? Have you the family in any of the census?

Some of the dates don't add up as you have two marriages for James Fears Russell in 1883 and 1896 but his death in 1894..perhaps a typing error.

Is this the marriage of John and Helen

John Russell/Helen Hassell
Marriage Registration
December Quarter
1910
Hackney
Greater London, London, Middlesex
1b, 971

This is the only birth i can find for a May

May Russell
Birth Registration
June Quarter
1910
Hackney
Greater London, London, Middlesex
1b, 496

This is obviuosly prior to the parents marriage and the only way to eliminate this is to get the birth certificate. Trying to find out if May was a second name will be a bit of a nightmare and you may have to wait till the 1911 census is released to see on that one.

Possible birth for John Russell

John James Russell

Hello Cathy
Many thanks for this. I have been looking for May for a very long time. Thanks for finding her.

James Fears Russell one for birth1893 and death in 1894 I believe.
I believe that James married a few times Harriet 1883 and Mary Elizabeth and Anna. Maybe differnet people
Thank you for your time

Hello Cathy

I am very very grateful for finding me this information. You are magnificent. Thanks you

Could you please find me more on

John Russell and Helen Hassell. They only had two children.

maybe when died

Also the date May Russell travelled to New Zealand I believe it could be in the 1950's. I realise this is such a common name. She travelled to Auckland

Thank you very very for helping

Hello Cathy

I did search for May Russell in the shipping records but can not find her. A Mary Russell has the fairly right details. Any way I was wondering if you could find when John Russell died and when Ellen or Helen Russell died. Thank you for your time
