Hi Maureen

(I haven't checked that yet)

Knowing a little of Helen's history . . . . .

This may very well be true (giving the 1901 census mentioned)
Marriage Mar 1920 Blackburn 8e 870 George A Seelig / Gladys A Smith
 Births Dec 1897 Uttoxeter 6b 351 George Albert Seelig

Giving rise to the interesting Charlesworth involvement

and the re-marriage (?) a little later.

The 1931 probate record gives George Seelig's address as Chesterton Terrace, Abbots Bromley which is Rugeley according to the property link I posted earlier.

A FreeBMD search for George Seelig shows
marriage (1884 Uttoxeter) to Elizabeth Ann Charlesworth
birth of son George Albert (1897 Uttoxeter)
marriage (1903 Lichfield) to Sarah Ann Sammons
death (1931 Uttoxeter) age 67 so born c1864

  If George was a farmer this could have been their residence ...Oaklands Farm, Pinfold Lane, Bromley Hurst, Abbots Bromley.....wonderful to find out about their life Thanks I will keep reading your posts to see what else I can discover

Is there any basis for connecting George Seelig to this particular property or is it just theat the farm is in the general area?
