Biography

The biography for Elaine Doyle is empty. What can you add?


I am the only child and my mother died in 1953 followed by my Father in 1973.

I moved to the USA in 1978 and married my Husband Jon L Swenson in 1982. We have no children but Jon has two daughters from a prior marriage.

As a child I met some of my relatives, Auntie Bea (Beatrice), Uncle Fenn (Fenning) and Uncle Connie (Conan) also two of my cousins Maggie (Margaret) and Sheila all from Johannesburg. Maggie and Sheila each had children of their own.

My Dad was somewhat of a nomad so we lived in Durban, Johannesburg, Cape Town and Mosselbay at various times. Shortly after his death in Cape town I received some money from his 100acre share of the Family farm in Mosselbay as the remaining Family members decided to sell off all their shares.

Elaine,

You are now a family member of WikiTree! I suggest that you start by looking at 'help' on the top right of the page and then click on "Intro to WikiTree". This will help you understand and be able to use WikiTree better. There are 9 very simple rules defined there also which you need to read and use. Good luck and happy hunting

Hi john, not sure what else to do as I volunteered to join but can't seem to add any info to my profile yet. At this time I am unable to sign the Honor Code until I am a member.

Please forgive this old lady for being confused as all I was hoping to do was update my Dads profile before my time runs out. I was an only child and have no children of my own so I guess it doesn't really matter anyway.
