Mysterious Burton brothers?
« on: Friday 29 April 05 10:57 BST (UK) »
Hi!
I have a bit of a problem here:
My grand-grand-mother's brothers John Francis B Burton and Arthur Gerald Burton seem to have disappeared. My father has told me that he think that at least one of them moved to Liverpool, because they never showed up at any family meetings or anything. Here they are in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire in 1901:



Arthur G Burton 8  Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England Son  Cheltenham  Gloucestershire   

John B Burton 30  Staffordshire, England Head  Cheltenham  Gloucestershire   

John F Burton 9  Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England Son  Cheltenham  Gloucestershire   

Kathleen M Burton 1  Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England Daughter  Cheltenham  Gloucestershire   

Maria Burton 29  Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England Wife  Cheltenham  Gloucestershire   

Marjorie V Burton 6  Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England Daughter  Cheltenham  Gloucestershire   


Now I have had an idea that they moved to the U.S.

I don't know if they did, but could anyone please check them up.


Thanks,
Markus
