I am trying to find James Wilson. He would have been born around 1912 give or take 5 years. He had 4 sisters called Emma, Sally, Elizabeth and Nancy and 2 brothers called John George and Matthew. He had a mother called Sarah Maria Wilson (Maiden name was Kenny).

James Wilson was also married to Charlotte Emily Boddington and they had 4 sons called jack, James, Arthur and Bernard.

Many thanks for your help
