Hellewell Family

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Hi
I'm looking for details about my grandmother's siblings Martha Hellewell B.1883 and Arthur Hellewell B.1887 at Liverpool.
My Grandmother Mary Jane Hellewell was also born at Liverpool in 1878 later married and moved to Yorkshire and another brother George W. Hellewell B.1876 at Northallerton also married and lived in Yorkshire too.
As yet I've not had any success in finding anything about Arthur and Martha other than their Birth date and Birth place. I would be interested to know if they lived in Liverpool and if there are still Hellewell family living in that area
Would appreciate any help.
Kind Regards
Janet

Hi
Many thanks again for all your help.
I think the Hellewell's you found will definately be the ones I'm looking for.
I was surprised to hear of another sibling Emma Hellewell B. 1884 I didn't know of.
I wasn't sure of the area of Liverpool my grandmother Mary Jane Hellewell came from. Toxteth park wasn't mentioned but I can remember my mother saying the family lived at Bootle at sometime.
Mary Jane had to leave home to find work and worked in service somewhere in yorkshire. She later married George Frederick Foster.They had a family of their own and lived in Penistone the rest of their days.
I knew of a Braithwaite connection in the family somewhere but never knew where it was so the info regarding this is particularly helpful and the web addresses you mentioned.
Will now give search trees a try following your advice.
Many thanks
Janet
