Denman James Ayton (1850-1929)

introduction

this Ayton family in New South Wales, Australia, do not appear to be related to my family but are included here for completeness
Denman James AYTON (1850-1929), a blacksmith, married Louisa GOSPER in 1876 in Denman, NSW, and died in Boggabri, NSW on 16 Aug 1929
- given the names Denman and Ayton are associated in Yorkshire in the 16th century, I am guessing this family originated from the Yorkshire Aytons.
  - see Denman in Yorkshire 1560
- or perhaps from relatives of Hannah Ayton (b.c.1778 in Halesworth) who married Robert Whitton at Denham in 1797.
- or perhaps more likely, the Denman name comes from the town in NSW where he was married
