One of our readers in trying to locate any surviving papers relating to a family
which has died out in the direct line.
I am posting her enquiry below and will be very grateful for any advice for her:
"I am looking for any archives, particularly private papers relating to Sir
Hedworth Williamson 9th Bart of the Baronetcy of East Markham,
Nottinghamshire and Whitburn Hall, Co. Durham. 1867-1942
Also any papers, especially correspondence relating to his mother, Lady
Elizabeth Liddell, daughter of the 1st Earl of Ravensworth, d.1920
his siblings,
Horatia Dorothy d.1949
Beatrice Anne d.1928
Captain Adolphus Hudleston Williamson 1869-1918
Frederick Charles Williamson 1872-1907
The 11th Baronet, Frederick Hedworth Williamson died in 2000 and the
baronetcy then died out."
Thanks & apologies for this posting
