Surnames: Charlton Maxwell
My Grandfather was born Alfred Peter Charlton, maybe on 29 March, 1894, at Ebchester. In later life he just called himself Peter. In 1924 he married Elizabeth Maxwell at Hexham, Northumberland. They had 2 children - my father Edward - born 22 June 1918 at Ebchester, and Albert Robson Charlton. They migrated to Australia when the boys were still children. Some of Peter's relatives migrated too. Vincent Proctor Charlton was one I know who came too. I also know my grandmother had a sister Rosie, who remained in England. I also have a photograph of a cousin of my fathers. She could be Rosies' daughter.
