I'd be really grateful for any information you can give me - my email address is in my profile, or if it's appropriate if you would put me in touch with your aunt. Because Francis Swithin died so young (just before my grandfather was born) I really only know bare bones of his story. I'd love to know more, and also about your grandmother who seemed a remarkable woman from what little I knew of her.Desperate Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15708411387912078122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8011557877105021955.post-37996034688386702032019-10-05T11:44:32.716+01:002019-10-05T11:44:32.716+01:00Dear Desperate Reader, my great grandfather was Fr...Dear Desperate Reader, my great grandfather was Francis Swithin Anderton. I know a bit about him, but my Aunt Lucinda (Chubb), his grand daughter, knows a lot more and is in touch with Marjorie (your cousin?).Panamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01197120184024732431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8011557877105021955.post-83009572927948894052018-02-21T20:11:25.347+00:002018-02-21T20:11:25.347+00:00Your Swithin Anderton sounds like my Francis Swith...Your Swithin Anderton sounds like my Francis Swithin Andertons grandfather. I haven't seen anything written about him, but I know that his Grandson, Herbert Foster Anderton was keen on genealogy so it's possible that there might be something somewhere. There is an email address in my profile link if you would like to contact me directly. I'd be really interested to hear anything about what you have found so far.

I am researching Swithin Anderton 1803-1860 I wondered if there is a portrait of him anywhere or if anyone had written about him.

When I look at this one I feel like he's chosen to caricature himself - it really is a very camp portrait and makes me think he must, as you say, have had a sense of humour.
