I am reseraching the Tonner branch of my family tree and would love to hear from anyone that has a connection with any of the following and may be able to help take me back further still.

My G'father, James Tonner, b1916 Rutherglen, married to Martha Isabella Garrington, b1915 d1939.

His father, Bernard Tonner, born c1874, died 1945 in Glasgow, married to Ann Dempsey, born c1876, died 1955. They were married in 1895 in Cambuslang.

Bernard's parents were a John Tonner and Mary Kelly, both deceased by 1895.

Ann Dempsey's parents were a John Dempsey and Maria Brown, both alive in 1895.

I understand that Bernard had five other children - Edward, John, Bernard, Agnes and Terence. Terence Tonner was born 1906 and died 1985 in Rutherglen.

I would also love to hear where the name originates from as I believe there may be some French connection in the past on my side.
