I have been trying to trace the London wilsons in my family tree. Have had no luck since 2008 as we have very little info. We believe he was a painter and decorator, London born. Married an Alice/Ann Day, and they had 8 children: George b1921 who married Margaret Brannigan, Wyn/Winnifred who married Ron Tutt, John who married gurtrude, Harry who married Sylvia, Emily who may have died as an infant, Harold who we think may also have died as an infant, Margey/Margery, Joan who married Ted Bass, and Eileen. They all lived in the London Area. Please let me know if you have any information. Thanks,
Sam

Its possible, thats the one we found listed we're not sure to be honest. I know they went on to have at least one child, a daughter called June, but we have no dates, only guesses

We think they came from the Paddington Area, Ann/Alice Day, Harolds wife came from norfolk and was cut off from family because of marriage.
