BOLIN, Judge.

An unmarried mother of three minors sued for workmen’s compensation benefits due the minors because of the death of their alleged natural father. The trial court found the deceased was the father of the children but that plaintiff had not proved they were dependent upon decedent at the time of his death. Plaintiff appeals, and defendants (employers and their insurer) move to dismiss the appeal contending that appellant failed to timely perfect the appeal. We overrule the motion to dismiss, and affirm the judgment of the trial court.
