Hi Jeanne,
It's great you live in England. The information is right there. I wish I could go to England!
I have John Southern's obituary. It states he was a United States resident since 1890. He was born July 24, 1875 Leeds, England. So he migrated when he was 15 years of age. He married Alice J. Rogers Oct. 13, 1903 in Halley, Idaho. Also in John's obituary, it mentions a sister-in-law Mrs. Sarah Elizabeth Southern. John died Oct. 24, 1967 in Salt Lake City, Utah. He was 92 years old.
In Benjamin's obituary, it states he was born Nov. 4, 1876. He died about 1961, aged 85. He married Matilda Byram April 20, 1905, Uintah, Utah. It also mentions sisters Mrs. Mary Ellen Ashton and Mrs. Hilda Burgoyne in the U.S.. Also his brother Jack(John). So there are other family members that came to the U.S. I don't know if his parents came with them. I don't have that info.
I live in Hawaii. I grew up in Utah. The Southerns lived in Idaho and Utah. I have very little information on this family so I appreciate any help you can send me.I wonder if we are related. Cyd
