Twigg, Ena (1914-ca. 1984)

Well-known British medium. Born in Kent, England, January 6, 1914, she was a member of a psychic family in which the parents and other children had sensitive ability. She played with spirit children at the age of seven and at 14 predicted the death of her father. Her psychic gifts disturbed her marriage to Harry Twigg.

After a serious illness, spirit visitors assured her that she would be restored to health; when she was eventually healed she made a decision to devote her life to helping other people. She became a member of the Marylebone Spiritualist Association and in due course opened her own healing clinic.
