Trying to find Wilson

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

I am trying to find relatives of Arthur Wilson born in Reddish, Stockport, Cheshire, in the late 1890s. He was married, and then later divorced, and had possibly 5 children, one of whom was called Bernard. He was still alive in 1957 when he attended his eldest brother's funeral (John Wilson) but appeared to be very ill-kempt at the time so it was thought he was living rough. He had another brother Joseph but Arthur was the youngest of the family. Their parents were Thomas and Elizabeth (nee McClernon). Thomas was born in Bolton and his parents were John (born in/near Preston, Lancs) and Elizabeth (nee Green). I would be very grateful for any help. Thank you. PS. There were relatives in Massechusetts, USA, called James J and Elizabeth Wilson still alive during WWII if anyone has any connection there as well. Thanks.
