Nellie Coultas, England to USA

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Margaret Report 16 Jun 2012 19:50

Trying to find descendants of Nellie Coultas who was my Great Aunt. She was born in Bradford Yorkshire in 1893 and her parents were Stainforth Coultas and Ann Townend. Her siblings were Elizabeth, Milfred (my Grandfather) and Lawrence. I think her husband's name was Emmett but I do not know his surname. They (or she) emmigrated to the USA and she had a daughter and a son. The son , I believe,went to Westpoint and c1952 visited Coultas relatives who were in Germany at the time. He married and had a son that the family called Squirt who I am told went into the Church. Squirt married Victoria and lived in Elizabeth, New Jersey. To the best of my knowledge these facts are correct but if any of it looks even vaguely familiar please reply.
