My name is Helaine Alessio and I am the grand daughter of Florence Annie East Carlson, I think that my grandmother (who was born in Nottingham England to Mark East) was related to Dorothy Woodward. Harriet East was the sister of my Grandmother's father, Mark.
My grandmother Florence East Carlson came to the US in the 1920's, married, John Carlson, and raised a family of 2 girls and 1 boy. She was the grandmother of 14, and great grandmother of 14. She died 2 days before her 100th birthday. She was a wonderful person and had a great life.
If you think that Florence would have been related to Dorothy Woodward--and if there are any surviving relatives, I would like to say hi to them.
