Find Living Relatives

Can't seem to find her after that marriage to Thomas.

Rose

Thats great Rose. I had been told that Thomas and Deborah had married in London, but i had only been able to find records for a marriage in Ireland. The Helena you have found would also suggest that this was the case. They must have moved to London after Helena had been born.

And she married in Islington to a Fitzgerald!

Rose

Helena was born in Ireland.

Will PM the birth.

Rose

I didn't think of that. Her mother was known by her middle name so it's not impossible.
Thank you.

Perhaps Celine was known by her middle name? There is a Mary C Walsh born in Pancras in 1950.

Thank you for your help. My mother was Caroline Hennigan and father David Brown and I'm still very much in touch with my aunt Linda and Michael Higgins. Caroline Hennigan passed away at the young age of 55 in 2014. This is one of my reasons for wanting to find family connections.
Unfortunately family ties had been lost between the sisters early in their youth. My aunt Linda was able to contact Celine/Celina (I'm not sure of correct spelling) back in the mid 90's when their mother passed away. At the time, no one was aware of Theresa's whereabouts.
Now i think I've found Theresa Walsh's birth records which suggests that she was born March 1949 in Paddington, London. I've also found Death of Father Thomas Walsh(1926–1950), Mar 1950 • Pancras, London, England. This is where i get stuck. I can't seem to find anything on Helena (Ena) or Celine/Celina. Linda has told me that Helena was the eldest and she is convinced that she too was born in London. Celine/Celina on the other hand may have been born back in Cork, Ireland as her father died before she was born.
Deborah Pam Walsh (the mother) then went on to marry Michael Hennigan in the June of 1952 in Hackney, Middlesex.
As you can see all of this happened in a very short time frame. It just seems odd that I can find birth records of Theresa and not of the two other sisters.

and a Linda Hennigan married in 1975 in Haringey to a Michael Higgins

there a Caroline Hennigan married in 1977 in Haringey to a David Brown

there's a Gertrude 1952 and an Edward 1961 born to a mother with maiden name Walsh in the London area

Michael and Deborah married in Hackney in 1952

Hi there Trudy - highly unlikely anyone with knowledge of these people will happen on your posting - sad but true - you have to look for them - so for starters, use the "Search" facility, top right hand corner of this page to see if any of these people feature in any trees on this site - if you strike lucky you then have the option of contacting the tree owner through the site

Good luck

Im looking for a Helena, Theresa and Celine Walsh who would have been born in London to a Thomas Walsh and Deborah (Pam) Walsh (previously Flynn) in the late 1940's. I know that Thomas Walsh died when the girls were very young, with the possibility that Celine had not yet been born. I believe they moved back to Charville, Cork with their mother when their farther passed away and ended up being brought up by there aunt Kathy. Deborah Pam Walsh or Pam Walsh then moved back to London, England to send money home for the girls. During this time she went on to marry a Michael Hennigan and have two more daughters, Linda and Caroline. If this sound familiar, please do get in touch?
Thank you
Trudy
