I'm in search of the Burton family and more
« on: Friday 14 July 17 13:48 BST (UK) »
Hi all, my surname is Burton, I'm the daughter of Terence A Burton and Carole Askew. His parents were John Burton and Irene May Briggs. John's parents were Robert Burton and Ada Ireland. Robert's parents were John Burton and Mary Pickering. John's parents were Matthew Burton and Elizabeth Welburn. That's how far I've got to on the Burton's. I would be so grateful of any help please and thank you.

Could you please give us some dates of birth and where they were born, bearing in mind not to put any information on anyone who is still living, so that we can help you further.
