Sarah ATKINSON & John HETHERINGTON, (Warblebank, Westward, CUL, circa 1795-1865). Thomas HINDLEY, (Bolton, LAN, 1855-1947). William HETHERINGTON (1828-1900) took his family to Brisbane, Queensland in 1879. His second eldest son, John William HETHERINGTON (b.1860, Brancepeth, DUR) was to develop a Mine Safety Hook circa 1895, used in the Ipswich mines in Queensland. It is possible that John's brother, James Stephenson HETHERINGTON and Robert SMELLIE may have perished in a mine accident in Queensland in Sept 1898. If anyone has details on the above families, I would be thrilled to hear from you. Thank you. (Updated November 2001)
