I am banging my head against a wall trying to find John Thomas Wilson 16th April 1897, Found a marrige cert. to Emma Jane Joblin Wilson (cousin) 19th July 1919 his father listed as Robert (Durham Records Office) and i have his death cert (died 26/12/1969) listed as born Ryhope Sunderland, he had 3 children John Thomas Jr, Samuel and Stanley (my father in law).

I know there were lots of bro/sis to 'Jack' some are POSSIBLY (father in law not positive), Mary, Edward,Beatrice,Peggy,Lily,Tom.

Can't even order birth cert as i can't find him to order it, need to find his parents names to move on further. Tried to trace through his wife as they were suposed to be cousins not luck there either.

Any help for a desperate young woman would be appreciated.

To Langdon Lass thank you but definately Apr according to his army papers.

To Linda brilliant i'll follow that up and try to tie back to his cousin (wife) to be doubly sure.

Thank you all.

Hi

I'm searching for anyone who knew Jean, last heard of in Warrington Lancs. in the mid 40's.
She may have connections with London and Birmingham.
Her father was Thomas, a builder's manager address unknown.
Ring any bells?
Regards
Lin
