Mary Atkinson, Charles Thompson, Eleanor Thompson
I am seeking information regarding Mary Atkinson (born May 5 1817 in Cleator, Cumberland, England - died February 19 1892 in Frizington, Cumberland, England).
She married Charles Thompson (1810-1878) on March 11 1837 in Cleator, Cumberland, England.
I am trying to find some evidence of a daughter named Eleanor who was baptized on November 24 1839 in Waberthwaite, Cumberland, England.There is some question as to whether Eleanor belongs to this family group.
Baptism records for her indicate her mother's name was Jane Thompson so we are trying to determine for sure whether the mother's name was Mary Jane and the two names were used interchangably, or whether Eleanor was in fact born to a different couple.
The father's name is listed as Charles Thompson, but there may have been more than one fellow by that name.
Thanks for anything that will lead to some clarification and documentation for Eleanor's parentage.
