Dear Deborah, I have 'lost' my Rathbones, and think they may have emigrated. George Richard Rathbone married Emily Grace Cotterill in 1881,in Dudley England, and had George Edward Thomas ('Tom') in 1883. He fought in the Boer war, and ended up in Austalia in 1916, where he joined the Anzac forces, eventually being killed in Belgium in 1917. I can find no deaths or trace of his parents, his grandfather being next-of-kin on his army papers. It would be great if you could help!!
Regards Elaine.
