Re: Some history of the Watterson family

Joanne

I have a bit of info on some Wattersons. Margaret Kneale(b.1876 Douglas I.O.M)married Thomas Henry Watterson (b 28/12/1874)had 4 children I know of:
???? Watterson
Wilfred Quayle Watterson
Gwendolen Watterson
Margaret Watterson

Gwen went to the U.S in 1915 aboard the Lusitania which was sunk by German
U-Boats on the return journey. Her Mother Margaret also went to the U.S but I'm not sure if it was the same time. They settled in California where her decendants, who I am in contact with, still live.

I have also noticed a Watterson or two on the South African NAAIRS website which I will also be looking up when I have a bit of time.

Hope this is of some help to you.

Regards

Laurence Kneale
