This is the only record found for John Atkinson. Birthplace is pretty certain as his parents were married in Lawrence Street and there are baptisms for his younger brother and sister there. There is no record for the family in the 1851 census of England or Canada. The records for Reach Township in Canada in 1851 were lost.
