I've given up on Fred Brown.
Now trying to find Violetta's daughter Helen/Ellen from her first marriage.

I don't see a birth of any Helen/Ellen Irene Hensley, so I'm wondering if this is indeed Violetta's daughter - without having to buy the marriage cert!

For what it’s worth, FMP also links the 1929 marriage to the birth. Possibly for geographical reasons as much as anything.
|
|
Thanks, ErikaH.
I think I shall assume Helen/Ellen Irene is the right woman.
Ellen/Helen Hensley is a very distant leaf on my tree, in any case, and I don't feel it's worth buying the marriage cert.
Her maternal gr-grandmother was a sister of my maternal gr-gr-grandfather.
|
|
I would think it’s the same person - especially in view of the DoB as per 1939.
|
|
I would also go along with that reasoning.
As you know only too well, the MC would be the way to go but if she is a very distant leaf on a twig, she probably is not that important to your tree.
Hopefully some time in the future something will come up to prove or disprove the marriage :-) :-)

Yes, that's my feeling.
I'm only investigating these distant twigs because there's so little activity on the boards!
