Following the Flashpoint, a new version of history was created with a different timeline of events for the characters.
Her great-great grandfather was Gino Bertinelli who alongside with the Cassamento family stepped in the 1860's to operate as the Mafia where they initially protected people from criminals but later turned into a criminal organization. In the 1930's, her grandfather Salvatore Bertinelli immigrated to America with his family where they settled in Gotham City. Around this time, the Bertinelli's and Cassamento's continued their partnership of offering protection to the people of Gotham. In time, the Bertinelli's became among the top five families of Gotham and later betrayed the Cassamento's that ended their friendship along with ending their allies business. Afterwards, her father Frank Bertinelli met and married a woman by the name of Maria with a few years later they had a son named Pino Bertinelli who was the older brother of Helena Bertinelli. Salvatore Bertinelli died around this time with Frank Bertinelli believing that the Cassamento's had been responsible for the death. When she was young, hitmen dispatched by Santo Cassamento arrived at the family home where they killed Helena's father, mother and older brother. Helena had managed to hide and thus survived where she was saved by the police after which her fathers mob allies took her out of Gotham City to protect her. She was sent to Sicily where she was looked after by her uncle and aunt. Her uncle Claudio then began to teach her in various skills such as archery and self defense where she began a life as a vigilante as she grew older. (Batgirl and the Birds of Prey v1 #4)
