Anderton family
« on: Wednesday 20 January 21 15:28 GMT (UK) »
A chance finding of a small coin while sweeping the garage floor has led me to find out more about it!  It's a token from the 17th Century and is inscribed with the town Stony Stratford and the name Robert Anderton.
So far, I've found info from a couple of sources - (Tokens from Buckinghamshire and Civil War petitions)  Robert Anderton was born roughly 1618-1623 (Civil War petition describes him as being over 80 in 1703)  He was a mercer and married to Mary unknown.
Possible ? :She died in 1675 and he remarried to Elizabeth Ebbs in 1675.  Francis Anderson, a grocer could be a relative.  Any help would be appreciated
