Biography

Helen McGuirk was first married to Ben Heverling on Feb 7. 1921 in Davenport, IO. A year later, she had a baby girl but It is unclear whether she and her husband had already split up or if that occurred after the baby was born. She is certainly divorced a year after the baby was born as she is married in 1923. By 1930, she is married to William Warnock who adopted her baby girl. Her last marriage is to a Kelly which is the name she died under.
