Hi,
Dinah married for a second time to a James Robert Helliwell marriage 1844 in Leeds WY. Both buried in Todmorden. There are four children of this marriage not sure if the first child belongs to Dinah, William born 1839 in Leeds? the others were James, John and Elizabeth all born with dates after the marriage.
Johnson must have got along with his step father as he named one of his sons's James Helliwel Littlewood. The name Johnson was his mothers maiden name.
Val.

Oh... this is a new one..because I have Walter's death (Dinah's first hubby) 1840 Honley? Her father's name was Samuel.
Spanner in the works.
Dinah's second marriage 1844, so now two to check out William Helliwel born 1839 Headingley Leeds and now Samuel born Honley?
Skeletons in the cupboard.

I do not know anything about James Robert Helliwell until his marriage to Dinah, then the children William B.1839-James 1849 -John 1851 -Elizabeth 1856.
Richard and Maria? Wonder what happened to Caroline?
In 1881 Dinah is listed as a widow, living with her is James, John and Elizabeth in Stansfield Todmorden. Dinah is buried in Todmorden as is her husband James Robert Helliwell.
This is great I will now put this into my family list and also add the information to GR tree.
Many thanks.
Val.
