Hi
Not completely on topic though. I have made a contact through "Genes........"!to a lady who is related to my gt grandmother Jane Williamson. It was her brother Robert Williamson born Stranraer 1865.
Do you think your Wilsons could have been Williamsons instead? Maybe someone tried to shorten the name?
Good luck anyway with your publication.
Judy

Thanks, Judy 
I only wish my Wilsons were Williamsons - I think I'd get further. I read some more about your Gypsy King this week

Not very helpful to the original post in this thread (sorry!), but a question about King Street. Does anybody know what hotels existed in King Street at the time of the 1841 census, and if they perhaps still exist? Sisters Marion McClune Douglas b. 1778 and Jane McClune Sloan b. 1765 were hotel keepers at that time. They are the daughters of James McClune and Marion Carson - my McClune family of Dunrod.

There are some trade directories for that time but I don't have access to them here. Maybe someone else has them.

Hello Scatza
Sorry I cannot help you on your query re King St Castle Douglas, however, I would give anything to know how your Coltarts are related to my Marshalls. Any offers? I have tried to follow the openings suggest by various contacts but have always drawn a blank.
Kind regards
Judy

Hi Judy
I think I have missed something - please refresh my memory! I had to go back to my query about King Street hotels to check whether I had mistakenly typed Coltart instead of McClune, but no, I didn't (actually I did make a mistake; I meant to say 1851 census  ). Perhaps you saw that Coltarts are also in my tree, but I wasn't aware that you are looking for a link between Coltarts and Marshalls? I have read some of your chat with Callywoods (my cousin in Gatehouse of Fleet), but can't remember if it included the latter? Perhaps you could start a new thread with your Coltart/Marshall puzzle? I love puzzles - so will look out for that and leave Castle Douglas for now
