AIison Barton d 1989
Alison Barton joined the Ladies' Alpine Club in 1956. She was the wife of Dr Arthur Barton AC, who died in 1976.
Until 1975 Alison and her husband climbed extensively in the Alps, almost exclusively in Switzerland. Dr Barton was a headmaster, so they were able to take advantage of long school holidays. Many Alpine Club members will remember seeing their party, which usually included two or three young climbers - nephews whom they were introducing to the mountains.
For many years, Alison and Arthur attended the Easter Meets of the ABMSAC in Scotland and Wales, and took a full part in all the climbing. Alison was a very lively person and added greatly to the social enjoyment of any party of which she was a member.
