Thomas and Helena Watkins 1882

Thomas Watkins, his wife Helena Kear and their youngest child Thomas

Their son Thomas was their 9th child and was born November 1870, so the
this photo was probably taken about 1882/3.

Helena Kear was born about 1830 at Littledean Hill, daugther of Thomas
Kear (b. c. 1807 Newland, bur. 5 Mar 1856, Blaenavon) and Clara Tingle (b.
1810, Littledean, bur. 3 Feb 1868, Blaenavon) who were married 18 Feb 1828
in Abenhall. Helena died 8 July 1893, Blaenavon and Thomas Watkins died 27
Sep 1907, Blaenavon.
