BOLTON

From: Heather Bolton
Date: 16/5/23 8:09 pm (GMT+10:00)
Subject: Bolton inquiry
 

Good evening David

In doing a little research into the family to my surprise I found these details of a Lillian May Bolton, who I was not aware of it seems she is a lost Aunty of mine. I'm wondering if you have any way of finding any other details?

Kind regards

Bruce Bolton 

Hi Bruce,

It would appear that Alice Esther Brasington had an illegitimate daughter Bertha in 1898 in Eden and when she married James Bolton in 1902, Bertha was adopted by James and assumed the Bolton surname and was a half sister of Clarice May Bolton.   Bertha Bolton (Brasington) had an illegitimate daughter Lillian May 18/9/1918 in Cooma and it would appear this child was raised by her Grandmother Alice Esther and husband James Bolton.  The details are in our DB.

The images you attached were not easily readable, are you able to obtain higher resolution copies?

Thank you,

Regards, Ian
