Just found this web site with literally hundreds of Challenger / Challener / etc.
variations of the name
I couldn't believe it -- though only a few are noticeably possibly related to folk on
this list, e.g.
Challoner Edith (Briston Mar 74) 1753 Will ITW/1
LMA 1780-1838 Coroner Challenger Isaac Clutton Sommerset
In any event, not knowing as much as y'all, perhaps you can look at the list and find
more useful information....
