Looking for any information about Helen Acquroff the poet, and heavily involved in the temperance movement, she was my great great grandmother, her son James was my mothers father. Would ideally love a picture!

Hello and welcome to RC from me too :)

An old thread here on RC with some additional links www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=95295.0

Are we right to think you have information like this on her already?

Hi all! thanks for all that, and yes have quite a bit of information about her already, Wikipedia page is really informative, would love a photo ideally, and also if anybody has any questions about her maybe I could help? I do have photos of her mother and father if any one is interested, John and Sophia Fletcher. I have joined ancestry to try and piece together my own family tree, so muddling sometimes but I love it!
