Lionel Atkinson
« on: Saturday 21 July 18 16:27 BST (UK) »
Good afternoon

I am trying to find details of the marriage of Lionel Atkinson to Jane L (Laura?) Lyon which took place in 1911 St Peters district of Sydney.

I think he could possibly be the son of Arthur James Atkinson and was bn 1889, Weeton, Yorkshire.

I have Lionel in England up to the 1901 census and have found a likely emigration in 1910 on the SS Wilcannia, London to Sydney.

Any confirmation that this is "my" Lionel would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

Edited as incorrect mother listed for a Lionel death.

Added: Death - 24788/1986 ATKINSON Jane Lawrence parents JAMES and MARGARET

ATKINSON Jane Lawrence Death notice 16-10-1986 Death 99 late of Cammeray Sydney Morning Herald 18-10-1986

A daughter: 42305/1914 ATKINSON  Margaret W parents LIONEL and JANE L MOSMAN

This is the death I deleted, but given that they had a daughter Margaret, I wonder if it is just incorrect information provided at time of death. It’s the only Lionel death that comes up in search for me:

3903/1975 ATKINSON LIONEL parents ARTHUR and MARGARET

This notice may be helpful in confirming the above death:

ATKINSON Lionel (Peter) Death notice 4-2-1975 Death late of Newport Sydney Morning Herald 8-2-1975   

Son’s death: 109425/1986 ATKINSON James parents LIONEL and JANE LAURENCE

Possible death of daughter: 8192/1983 CONWAY Margaret Winifred Mary parents LIONEL and JANE

Her engagement notice, 1st column: http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article17465364

Marriage: 132/1939 CONWAY Richard Mervyn to ATKINSON Margaret Winifred Mary SYDNEY
