thanks Carolyn.
I have no idea whether or not Helen had any siblings as I have very little information about her.
I was told by a very elderly aunt, that Helen had been born in England but I have no way of validating this as there is no-one else to ask.
My great great grandmother- Mary Robertson - is one of Helen's children and I came across a Helen (Somerville) Robertson in the 1881 Scottish Census who was born in England and I assumed that this is my ancestor as the family had a daughter called Mary who was born around the same time my gr, gr grandmother was. I also saw the entry in the 1871 Census for Ellen and Isabella but I was not sure if it was my Helen.
I am unsure of the spelling of Isabella's maiden name as it the spelling is not clear on the marriage extract I got from Scotland's People web site.
