I'm trying to find any wilsons who are related to william wilson born 1854/55, and who was a coal miner originally from tockwith in yorkshire. He was from a large family who were all based in and around chester le street in co durham. He married a mary ann birkett who was born in or near richmond, and they had six children: john george, mary elizabeth, william, thomas birkett, henry and alfred. I know that alfred became a minister, and I think he and his wife had triplets called jill, joy and june. Henry was my grandfather and died in a mining accident in 1925. Any help would be great...Pam
