In the 1900 census, Ellen was shown 15 years in the US – 1885; married 14 years – 1886 [as her sister, Ann, died 1885].
NOTE: Ann married Henry in England (both born and raised there) in 1873 and Henry did not leave for the US until 1881. Ellen would have known him for at least 8 plus years. Her sister had 4 children born in England before coming to the US.
Ellen came to US to care for her ill sister and her children - sister: Ann (Keefe) Tricker died Dec. 29, 1885, of Phthisis Pulmonalis – TB / Consumption. It is highly contagious with progressive wasting of the victim's health and vitality as the disease took its inevitable course.
Ellen and Henry had two children: Albert and Frank.
If children have the same father and the two sets of children have different mothers, who were full sisters, how are siblings related?
The two sets of children would be somewhere in between full and half siblings.
You could call them "three-quarters" siblings.
Full siblings share on average ½ of their DNA
Half siblings share ¼ DNA with one who was the same parent.
Two sets of children with the same father but with different mothers who were full sisters would share ⅜ of their DNA.
The two sets of children are definitely closer to being siblings than cousins at the genetic level. Cousins only share on average ⅛ of their DNA.
Ellen's children and Ann's children were 3/8 siblings.
With one of her children, Frank, and her niece Bertha, Ellen went West to Oakland Calif. in approximately 1916.
Ellen belonged to the Eastern Star both in New York and Oakland, California.
