William Wilson of Eastwood Nottingham
« on: Tuesday 02 July 13 09:04 BST (UK) »
Hi,

Can anyone help me find the birth parents of William Wilson born 1900 (Nottinghashire?).  He died in a coal mining accident on 22nd October 1946 in Cinderhill Nottinghamshire.  The rumour is, he should have been born as "Teather".  He lived in Eastwood Nottinghamshire for many years.

You may need to do a bit more research and go one step at a time, in order to arrive at the correct birth registration. There is a William Wilson  bn 1900 Nottinghamshire on freebmd, but also several in neighbouring years , plus you have a doubt on the name. So even ifyou got that cert, without other info you would have no guarantee it was thge right person.

Did he marry? If so who does he name as father on the marriage cert?
Have you found him in 1911?
What is the "tether" story- does he ever use that name?

I know that it is the correct Birth date.  I have info on his death, he died on 22nd October 1946 in a mining accident.  He married Alice Gertrude Flint (Chambers) in March 1919.  They lived at Hilltop Eastwood.  I have lots of Census info that I have to study.  It can get very, very confusing. The Teather story is what certain family members said.  That he should have been born into the name Teather.  They are no longer alive and the ones that are won't talk about any of it.

Thanks anyway, I'll get to the bottom of it, eventually.  :)

Hi,

Looking at the 1901 Census, there are 3 William Wilsons that fit with the date of birth that you give.
On the next Census there is only one that fits.

Does your William have a middle name?

As lizdb says the only William Wilson born 1900 in Nottingham is: Wilson William   Nottingham 7b 389

Best wishes,
Copperbeech5
Hutchinson - Nottingham.
Rowland - Nottingham.
Parkin - Co Durham/Nottingham.
Gardiner/Gardner/Gardener - Co Durham.
Drake - Derbyshire/Lincolnshire/Sussex/London?
Leighton - Derbyshire.

I have found his birth registation, with the help of a friend. 

Birth: William Wilson, Dec 1899, Basford, Vol: 7b, Pg 164.

Marriage: William Wilson and Alice G Flint, Jan-March 1919, Basford, Vol:7b, Pg: 294

I will get around to ordering the certificates at some point.

Thanks everyone

Out of interest, how do you know that is the right birth ref?
It is one of the ones I refered to in my first post,  but as I said then, it will not be easy to pinpoint the right one.

Maybe you now know his father's name from 1911 or from his marriage cert, so if/when you get the birth cert you can see if it matches?

Possibly William Wilson was the illegitimate son of Alice Wilson
Possibly Alice Wilson married George Teather in 1900

If William was b Hill Top/Eastwood then his birth would be registered in Basford district

I'll post some census in a mo
