  Family	Captain Leonard* Helm, (Immigrant),   b. Abt 1660, Goosnargh, Lancashire, England d. Bef 6 Nov 1745, Frederick Co, Virginia (will) (Age ~ 85 years)
  Marriage	23 Nov 1687	Bolton Le Sands, near Goosnargh, Lancashire, England
  	marriage of an Leonard Helme to an Elizabeth Greenwald on 23 Nov 1687 in Bolton Le Sands. It might be nothing, but we also found the following: "Burial 10 Jun 1687 _ Jane wife of Leonard Helme. Baptism 8 Jun 1687 Thomas son of Leonard Helme (of Churchtown)" Both Churchtown and Bolton Le Sands are in the area of Goosnargh. If these records are of our Leonard , he married quickly after death of first wife but he would have needed a mother for his baby. There is a lot of information out there that is not proven which is listed on the net and elsewhere as if it was. For instance I have seen in multiple places that Leonard Helm Sr. was married to Elizabeth Meredith. He WAS married to Elizabeth but her last name has never been proven. Some researchers I know have guessed that her surname MIGHT have been Meredith since Leonard's eldest son was named Meredith and because there was a Meredith family in the same area of Virginia that Leonard Sr. lived in. In the begining they made it clear that it was just a guess, but in the intervening time other people have picked it up and repeated it as if it were fact. Truth is many of us have looked for a marriage of a Leonard Helm to an Elizabeth Meredith in England around the Goosnargh area and elsewhere but have never found one. we couldn't even find a Meredith family in the Goosnargh area in that time period. http://genforum.genealogy.com/helm/messages/1135.html
