Person:Betty Hirst (2)

An attempt was made to link Betty Hirst to her parents and to prove that her maiden name was Hirst. Amazon provided so many Hirst families in Slaithwaite (2-3 miles west of Almondbury) that could have been her parents that it was decided not to try and link Betty to any one of them.
