Heale (Heal) family of St Helens

[Whosthatchick]

I have been trying to trace the birth details of my great grandmother Ellen Agnes Heale.   Her father was William Henry and her mother Elizabeth (I think).   Apparently he came out to NZ with his young family after Elizabeth died.   He was married to a Louisa and died in NZ, but I am not sure whether his second marriage was in Jersey or New Zealand.   Have tried UK websites but cannot get any joy.   Can anyone point me in the right direction to get correct details, thanks.

Just another way to look, not help I'm afraid.  My great grandmother was a Heale from Somerset and her surname was often written as Hale.

Thanks, I'll try that spelling variation.

Do you have any approximate dates?

Hi as Stewart said if you give us some dates it will help also when William died ..what year your great grandmother was born the more information the better

My grandmother's birth certificate states that her mother Ellen Heale was born in St Helens, Jersey in approx 1866 (died in New Zealand about 1950).   We believe Ellen's mother was Elizabeth Smith, who died in 1868.    Not sure where Elizabeth was born or died.  Her father was William Henry Heale and he died in NZ in 1892 - he was buried with his second wife Louisa (nee Round).   I have been unable to find their surname in any of the search sites for the Channel Islands.

Afraid not finding much for Ellen maybe some of the other's might have better luck following on from the 1871 census this could possibly be him on the 1861 going by the occupation
William Heal b 1832 England blacksmith
Elizabeth Heal b 1836 St Helier
