Helen had a relationship with an unknown man and gave birth to a daughter but could not care for her so she was adopted by the Hawkins family and named Mary Jane Reta (she later changed her name to Sue). Sue never knew her mother but finally met her half sister "Geri" in 1991 and the two of them remained in contact until Geri's passing. Geri was raised by her paternal grandparents and only had one known contact by mail from her mother sometime in the 1930's. Upon learning that their mother was buried in an unmarked grave, Sue then purchased a headstone and had both hers and Geri's names engraved on it, as they were the only two children of Helen's who had survived to adulthood. How sad that Helen never knew either of her daughters. 2nd Marr: Dec. 23, 1929 in Los Angeles Co, CA to: Reuben Carter - no issue 3rd Marr: Dec. 31, 1941 in Mohave Co, AZ to Frank Ervin Mires - no issue 4th Marr: Aug. 27, 1947 (record not found) to Wallace Earl Witt - no issue Porterville Evening Recorder - June 20, 1970 MRS.
