Hi Sue,
My research is based around Ebenezer’s first marriage to Edith Dodgson in October 1792. From what I can see they had 1 daughter, Elizabeth, before Edith died in June 1795. Ebenezer re-married in November 1796 to Ann Stockdale but I have no record of any children. Ann must have died before 1809 because as you know, in June of that year he married again to Hannah Adamson and I believe they had 5 children. Hannah died in December 1834.
Elizabeth at some point moved to London and in September 1821 married William Ellis and then later again in 1841 to Joseph Langley. The Ellis's had 7 children, the eldest of which Edith (born September 1822) is my G2 grandmother. I guess that makes Ebenezer my G4 grandfather, albeit by a rather convoluted route which I can explain later if it’s of interest.
Ebenezer was the son of James (1770) and Jane Atkinson, and his paternal grandparents were Thomas Atkinson (1704-1782) and Mary Hardcastle.
I have quite a lot more detail on the above (dates, names, images and source information) that I could send to you if that helps and you agree with my findings. I have not spent too much time on the Atkinson family as my main interest is in Elizabeth, so if you have any information about when she died, that would be a great help to me.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
Jon
