Hi Valma, my grandmother was Kathleen Abberton. I guess she is top center in the picture above. Thanks for posting. I remember Algie and Eva from visits to Abbey. My grandmother Kathleen, married Tom Lynch and lived gust across the road in Abbey.
Bridget Davis nee Abberton my GG Grandmother Born 1845 parents Marie Shiel,& Michael Abberton is who I’m searching for she had a brother Francis b.1834 and Patrick b.1838 and the name Cornelius Abberton who was Bridget Shiel sponser I believe has come up in our research. Is it possible that someone in this community has him in their family. Also the name Moran possibly.
When we were in Abbey in 2003 we visited Abbertons and the elderly couple were very friendly, asked us in for tea, his name was Algie and his wife Eva. We had an hour with them, but they couldn’t connect us to any family belonging to us, we went to Woodford Family History but nothing was any help unfortunately.
