One for Christmas Eve!
BK6 updated from this thread
Can anyone find Mrs Helen Hall of Aldborough? (I have only had the scantiest, unsuccessful, look). Here are the clues (most are ones I wasn't aware of when I started this post!!) At September 1901 she was dead and at that time she had two living children. Sadly, I don't know which Aldborough she lived in (see below though). I have her photo. On the album page the caption says Mrs Hall and her two children, but on the reverse of the photo it seems to say (faint pencil) "Mrs Hall. Alace (sic) and Percy Stanhope." I would date the photo perhaps in the 1880s and the children are under 7 years (the girl slightly older than the boy) and Mrs Hall is perhas around 40 or so. I've also just noticed the photographers details on the photo which say: Clarke and Son Aldeburgh (so different spelling to above which is in a will). I remember having another confusion over Aldeburgh and Aldborough before, but that was a completely different part of my tree

Thanks Jay! I had concentrated on Aldborough in Yorkshire and Norfolk, not Aldeburgh in Suffolk! lol

There's a Helen Rey Parvis, which someone had corrected to Purvis on the London baptisms, in 1840, parents James & Jane.
http://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bin...5&recoff=21+23 The baptism ties in with the birth reg of Helen Key Purvis Dec 1840 Stepney.
