Mike,
Per an email conversation with someone who currently has the book, "Hope Atherton and His Times" was a paper read by Arthur Holmes Tucker (life member of the Pocumtuck Valley Memorial Association) at Deerfield, Massachusetts on Feb. 23, 1926.She also shared the following quote from the book with me:"From him [Robert de Atherton] we trace down through the centuries to Humphrey Atherton who was born in Lancashire, England, about 1609, and came with his wife (Mary Wales) and their three young children, in the ship, James, from Bristol, England, in 1635, to Dorchester in New England.Beginnin with Consider (who was the first boy, born in New England, to this family) there were nine children born here, making twelve in all, of whom Hope, the subject of this sketch, was the tenth child."
I do believe that the book references that the Robert de Atherton information came from the NEHGS Register vol 35, p 67 in an article entitled "The Atherton Family in England".
That's all I have for now. I am hoping my copy of the book will arrive soon.I am under the impression that the book isn't brimming full with ancesteral information and that this may be the only reference in the book, but at least it is somewhat of a lead...
All the best,
Rebecca
