Arthur Wilson was my great grandfather and I am having difficulties with finding out what happened to his siblings. Richard for example was born about 1855, I have found him in the 1861 and 1871 censuses and then he has vanished into thin air. I have searched for a death or wondered if he got married or even went abroad. Likewise, what became of Maria, did she marry between 1871 and 1881, if so who? MTIA

Sorry the family were living in the Hull area, the parents were Thomas Wilson and Charlotte Wilson (nee Hoy or maybe Hay/Hey or even Key).
From the 1851 census I have
Thomas Wilson 31 (born 1820)
Charlotte Wilson 27 (born 1825)
Ann 9, Thomas 7, Charlotte 5, William 4, Maria 3, Mary 4 months and Henry Wilson who is 26 (presumably Thomas' brother). HO107/2320
From the 1861 census we have:
Sarah Ann Wilson 18, Thomas 17, Charlotte 15, William Hy Wilson 14, Maria 12, with the additions of Richard 6 and George 4. RG9, 3594
In 1871 we have
Thomas 51, Charlotte 48, Maria 22, Richard 16. George 14 and the arrival of 7 year old Arthur RG10/4792
I am interested in Ann becoming Sarah Ann, presumably she married. I know for definite what became of Arthur, but what became of the other children? We think from previous threads Thomas died Jun 1874 53 Hull 9d 154.Last edited by LorraineJ; 05-06-09, 09:03.

I looked up the birth of Sarah Ann Wilson (born 1842 in Hull) and for a couple of the entries when you look at the image the name does not correspond with what you have been led to believe. Its very confusing and frustrating to order a certificate and find its not as expected.
