Find Ancestors

(yes, I did add this 'Thread' link to another one by Pauline, in the hope she could add to this with more info!, like where?...)

Nevermind, can't keep chasing and asking, lol.

Chris :)

Chris I looked for her under that name even tried Ellen still nothing.

(adding below update from Pauline)

found out she MAY not MARY also went by HELEN and married to CLARENCE

Chris :)

(so Helen May Inglis?)

(but whereabouts?)

(did wonder if it was related to that David Stewart 'Thread', Pauline posted same day, but who knows, lol, the agony of the wait!. Out today, but good luck with things!)

Chris :)

As a matter of interest, there are several places called Dorset in different parts of America ??

Just for information, various American ones here:

https://www.myheritage.com/names/clarence_o'connell

I know the census I put up said she was born in New York but she could have just said that. It just seem funny that we can't find anything concrete.

Pauline can you please tell us how you are related and are you in England please.

(yes sorry AG, was looking as you added!, no, not looking like it then, lol, more info. needed from Pauline!)...

Chris :)

The Mary in the 1930 and 1940 US censuses posted by Mel isn't the right one - that one was born in New York.


There were no Clarence O'Connells born anywhere in England/Wales 1895-1902, per FreeBMD.

There were no Helen Mary Inglis'es born in Scotland 1885-95.
There were three Mary Helens in that time, but none in Inverness-shire.
