Re: Dorthy mabel jelf

Good Morning Ladylinda;
It was very nice to hear from you after all this time as i had not seen or heard of you on the forum for a long time;
and its nice to know you are still with us on the forum even thou you do not make your self notice and that you are obsevationing in the back ground
i must admitt i did not think i would have got all that info; to come through from any body more so offf you as i did not think you was still with us thats great to know you are still with us ; so yes again you have done me proud; and i cannot thank you enough linda and now i know the mystry lady of mary jelf whom seemed to have lived with all the jelfs for years
and my grand father was not there fore married befor bertha ; and joyce I Jelf hinton was the daughter to Ernest bertha hinton whom he married
joyce Ivvy hinton was my own mother and dorothy was williams daughter whom married a driver;
linda ; many ; many thanks again for your valuable time ; you have given me ;and our other members as i know there is other people following the jelfs
connections even thou have not come foreward that being there sibbling whom have yet to come forewad but as i have learnt from a family member of one of the jelfs they are a tight lipped family the brotheres was in the early years of there lives so i think as the old saying used to go ; father like son and daughter like mother
but my mother was just the oppersite she often spoke out about her family and there secrets and the carrying ons
the reason i asked as well was that there is a little story that my mother had a half bother but whom and where from or by i do not know thats why i was wondering whether or not that my grand parents ; ernest jelf and bertha had ever been married before where did the half brother come from that was my big queery
but once again linda many many thanks for your wonderful hard work i have learnt more
may i take this moment to wish you a very happy easter and god bless you ; take care Astonian aLAN
