Anne Report 22 Mar 2009 15:14

Trying to find any descendants of Charles Atherton, born Banwell 1898 or his sister Lilian Atherton, born Banwell 1895 (both Somerset). A marriage or any info on Lilian would be greatly appreciated. Also, a death for their mother Minna Atherton (m/s Harding), born 1867 Lympsham.

Thanks to anyone who can help me with information on this family.

Looks as though she was Lilian Eliza but I can't find a marriage before 1930 for her.

Is this Charles death. The age is correct. If it is then it is possible that Minna remarried and her death would be recorded under a different name.

Did a check for Atherton/Campbell births and they all appear to be in Lancashire so not sure if they belong to the same couple who married in Devon.

I just realised it says Minna was blind. Does this ring any bells?

Hello Astra
we are not getting any feed back yet from Anne. That is a shame. It would be nice to know we are the right line.
