I came upon your inquiry by a serendipitous Google search .
I believe that Abel Bottoms from Clophill ,Bedfordshire is
my Great Grandfather .
To my knowledge he settled in Philadelphia,PA and worked as a stone mason and eventually became a succesful builder .
His daughters included Estelle,Euphemia, and my grandmother,
Gertrude Bottoms White b. in 1890 d. 1967 .Family folklore
informs me that he had another child who died in infancy.
I believe he had a considerable number of Grandchildren
some of whom carried on in the building trades.
I apologize that my knowledge is so sketchy as this family
seems to have undergone an American diaspora.
I am curious as to what your interest is in Abel Bottoms ?
