Wife:
Charlotte Helena Abernethy Born: 1867 Died: 1906 Father: David Fawcett Abernethy Mother: Charlotte Mathers Married at St. Saviour's, Liverpool 1 Aug 1887 Phil, Received your e-mails of 24/01/2002 and 3/02/2002. As stated in my initial e-mail reply Charlotte Helena Abernethy was my grandfather's sister of whom I know very little.Despite my endeavours over the past few years to find out further information on Charlotte my efforts were less than fruitful. The Margaret Abernethy on the e-mail referred in fact to my wife. Charlotte was one of 5 known children as follows:- John born 1854 - died 1912 Margaret born 1855 died 1926 Emily birth date unknown - died 1919 Walter (my grandfather) born 1862 - died 1918 Charlotte Helena born 1866 - died 1906. Their parents were David Fawcett Abernethy died 1903 and Charlotte Mathers (who originated from Dublin) died 1904. Both died in Dublin. The family appeared to have been brought up in Kings County, Tipperary, Dublin and England. They were of the Church of Ireland/Protestant faith and seemed to have had some military connections. The family seem to have been fairly fragmented and little contact appears to have been maintained prior to their relatively early deaths. Charlotte's father David is believed to have travelled on a number of occasions to Canada, but always returned. His occupation in records has been given at various times, as a gentleman, a farmer and also a milk dealer. I do believe that there were other siblings born but despite extensive searching have not been able to ascertain the name of any of these. I also believe that emigration played a significant part in the families dispersion and that Charlotte had at least two children, Walter ( your ancestor) and possibly one called Charles. Charlotte was known to have been in service in Bootle, Liverpool in 1881 ( 1881 Census), but I was not aware that she spent time at Little Bray, South Dublin before arriving at Liverpool. Being born in 1942, I was brought up with the knowledge that Charlotte Helena Dalrymple nee Abernethy had been married to a cabinet maker, but this was all I was aware of until about 2 years ago. My grandfather, Walter Abernethy, whom I never knew died at 57 of sclerosis of the liver (Bright's Disease). In reference to Charlotte Helena Dalrymple's death certificate, it shows that her death in 1909 was caused by the same condition when aged just 40. You mentioned in your e-mail that perhaps Walter Dalrymple was named after my grandfather Walter. I think that this was would be the case, as other members of the Abernethy family have continued the name. I was pleasantly surprised to see a picture of my father's Aunt, 93 years after she had died and presume that further information and images of her family i.e. Abernethys do not exist as far as you know. I would also be interested to learn how you became aware of the Little Bray information as this may assist me in further research which has for the past 18 months - 2 years, as far as the Abernethy family members are concerned, been unfruitful. With regards your query as to whether there is anything you could/should look for at Little Bray I cannot assist at all, as this was an area as stated that until your contact, was unknown to me. I may in the near future take the opportunity of speaking to your grandmother prior to the pending cessation of my family tree research. Hope this information is useful to you.
