I'm searching for Eileen O'DONNELL, born on either 4 or 14 Oct 1908 in New York City, daughter of Helen Frances GREY and (Unknown) O'DONNELL (and probably illegitimate). Helen was from Ireland and sometime after Eileen's birth she went north to Canada where she married James LEA in 1912. Helen died within the year and little Eileen died the following spring. Thanks kindly.
