Biography

Born May 1, 1979 in Ypsilanti, Michigan, USA. Adopted by a Helton family at age 8, then removed from them at age 12 but kept Helton name. Remained ward of the state of Michigan until 18 years old. I was separated from my younger brother and sister.

Gave birth to Son 1 of 2 in 2001, at age 22, I was unmarried. That son's father is a Harper. Gave birth to 2nd son in 2004 at age 25. I was married to his father, now divorced.

Bad choices made in my early adulthood. Led to older son being adopted by his paternal grandparents when he was 6. We are still in contact and he knows I am his mother and understands the situation.

Currently I am 41 and things have finally settled down. Now trying to trace my biological family out of curiosity and so my children will know where they are from. I have found my birth parents who have been quite helpful.

Hi, Jessica, re the ancestry of Airad fitz Stephen: I looked at the geni.com info and I am not sure it is historically established. I have never seen parents for Airad, but I doubt they would have been Counts, if he was a shipbuilder and captain. No one else has this ancestry for him around the net, so I don't know where the belief comes from. It would be nice if it were able to be verified as there would be a long and very interesting line to look at. Cheers.

Hi Jessica,

I follow the Hull family, although I am not related to this Benjamin Hull, so I get news on all Hulls. I noted your recent removal of Benjamins parents and found several different references to Benjamin Hulls born on this same date with a wife named Sarah. The most relevant is this one on find a grave. It sure looks like your Benjamin.

Hi, I see that you just did the Pre-1700 Self-Certification. That's great! Is there a particular time period, location, or topic you're interested in? Maybe you have some historically-significant ancestors? Let me know. I can help you figure out if there's a project and introduce you to the project leaders.

Hello! My name is Jessica and I have been working on my ancestry through ancestry.com and have found a LOT of information. I love the journey through time and have gone back as far as 1160 AD. I was a foster child and I love that I have more of an identity each time I add to my tree. I just discovered this free tree and I want to put my info on here cancel my free trial for ancestry.com, and continue my journey here while helping other possible family members find clues as well. PLUS I want to help others find their families maybe other foster people. In high school I was supposed to make a family tree and couldn't. It was embarrassing. I was determined to someday find my family. Now I know I am from England, Germany, Ireland and Denmark. So far. May I help? :-)
