Charles Atherton, Rancher of Jeffersonville, Passes
Charles Atherton, 71, died at his home at Jeffersonville Sunday morning. He had been in ill health the past six months. His life was spent where he was born, at the old home place at Jeffersonville. He was a good man and had many friends especially among the older residents who knew him best.
His funeral was held from the home of his sister, Mrs. Sarah Queirolo, of Jeffersonville at 2:30 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, under the direction of the Burden Company, Rev. Barthol W. Pearce officiating at the services. Interment was in the Columbia Public Cemetery.
Surviving, besides the sister above, is another sister, Mrs. Rachel Beynum of Jeffersonville, four nieces, Mrs. Dolly Baird of Stockton, Mrs. Effie Dennis of Richmond, Mrs. Sadie Nicholls and Mrs. Verna Curtin of Sonora, and a sister-in-law, Mrs. Wm. F. Knoop of Jamestown.
Charles A. Atherton was born in May 1865, to Isaac Atherton and Sarah Thomas in Tuolumne County, most likely in Chinese Camp.
He and his parents and siblings lived in Chinese Camp where his father was a miner. His sisters were S.J., Rachel A. and Emma. His brothers were George and Frank. There was another sibling that passed away at a young age.
Charles remained single all his life. He lived alone in the Rawhide area (near Jamestown), and was devoted to his trade as a gold miner.
He passed away in Tuolumne County on May 2, 1937 at the age of 71.
I found a Card of Thanks printed May 14, 1937, in the Daily Union Democrat newspaper for the condolences of the loss of their brother and uncle. It was signed by Sarah Quirolo, Rachel Beynon, Dollie Baird, Effie Dennis, Verna Curtin and Sadie Nicholls.
