Are you aware of Australian newspapers on line - Trove?
https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/search?adv=y
Plenty there re. Atkinsion. One item mentions a brother, Robert Henry, 1st town clerk of Newcastle, and father Robert, Sergeant in the 28th Regt of Foot, arrived Australia 1838.
I'd spotted Glady's link with the RFA after checking out New Zealand's papers on line - Papers Past.

Is the full name Clyde Gibson Anderson?
I can see that name in NZ newspapers and also a Surrey birth registration 1881.
Check early Trove (1838-1851) for Robert Tighe."dyfal donc a dyr y garreg"

Can't believe I typed Anderson - it's Aston in my notes.
Birth registered Jun Quarter 1881, Croyden (Surrey), vol 2A, Page 210 - mother's maiden name Griffin.
I found mention of the RFA re. her marriage 1920?"dyfal donc a dyr y garreg"
