I am trying to find out about John G. Bathurst who may have been born in PA or Indiana or even California......just a few possibilities.The Bathursts owned a summer home on Decatur Island during the 40's and 50's and I think he might be the JOhn Bathurst who died in Washington at age 87. He was born about 1863 and since I am no relation I cannot purchase a death certificate to find out more.
My family settled this island in 1867 and I have been the teacher here from 1974 until I retired in 2006. I have worked on a History of Decatur since 1970 when my father passes away. I only know that the old people referred to The Bathursts. The land was sold in 1956. The name on the County maps was John G. Bathurst. Does anyone know of any Western Washington state Bathurst named John?
Thanks for any help.
