Mary Helen Albert

  General Notes:

1900 U. S. census states mother of 11, 6 living, as does 1910 census.

"First two children were Catholic. When they died in some epidemic, Papa said after that the children would be Episcopalian." (Helen Dalton Babbitt, 1988).

  Things to check:

Mary Helen Albert had a brother, John, who was a cutter for Pictorial Pattern Company (Helen Dalton Babbitt, 1988).

Pictorial Pattern Company evidently created dress patterns and published "Pictorial Review Fashion Book" (actually a magazine). Company was purchased by Simplicity. (Web research)

Brother John Albert, age 40, pattern cutter, is enumerated in the household of Walter and Mary in the 1910 U. S. census.
