Are we related? My Father was also Kenneth and was born in Bradford I think in 1910. He became an engender then a merchant seaman. He met my mother Beryl Middleton in Bombay india at a tea dance. They returned to England in about 1949 eventually settling in the Southampton area. My father died about 27 years ago.
I am married to Kim and we have a daughter Ruth.
Ken,
My Mathers ancestors were Scottish (with a few generations in Northern Ireland) from the Glasgow-Edinburgh region. People seem to think that the Scottish Mathers and the Yorkshire Mathers names are of separate origins. I posted something on this a while back at https://mountainsrivers.com/2015/08/14/origin-of-the-name-mathers/
I am no expert, and its always possible there may be some connection further back. If you go far enough back, we are all descended from common ancestors, so I am happy to connect with a possibly remote cousin.
Regards, Colin
