Great to hear from you too!
First of all, thanks for the title of the book.I must see if I can find a copy.
Second, I fear you are too optimistic about connections to my Keartons!I'm not even sure how they fit in myself!
To begin with: they belong to my wife's family tree.Her mother was Emily Dixon, born in Fence Houses, Co Durham.Emily's mother was Sarah Anne Lutas and her father was Joseph Dixon. She was brought up in Holywell, Co Durham and had several elder siblings including Sarah-Jane, Pearl, Eleanor and Harry.Joseph Dixon seems to have departed by this time.Then Sarah Anne moved (back?) to Whitehaven and has the name Kearton.This may have happened c.1910.Emily refers to a brother(?) Robbie Kearton who was with her and Sarah Anne in Holywell.I strongly suspect that Sarah Anne was married to William Fenton Kearton who was born at Brough, Westmoreland c.1855.As Fenton appears as a name elsewhere in the Kearton family it may provide a clue as to the branch my wife comes from.I have a little more information about a Christopher Kearton b.1867 d.1956 + his descendents.
I hope to hear more from you!

PS. Which Alston do you mean?
