Goulburn NSW marriage lookup 7 Oct 1874

[judb]

A couple of points -

St Saviour's is the Anglican cathedral in Goulburn and the style "Very Rev" is one used for the Dean of an Anglican cathedral.  It's a beautiful building. I think earlier posts had already established that this would be the place of marriage.
Edit to add: This title is also used in the RC church.  Goulburn RC diocese was established in 1864.

Back to the original reason for the request.  Have I got it right that you think the parents listed on his immigration may not be his biological parents? And the immigration record is the earliest record of parents? 

And this is the info from his first marriage?
Yes, he was a Woolcomber, bachelor, she a spinster, botp, both made their marks, with consent of parents crossed out, witnesses Francis Capstick & Thos Thompson

Hope you can find this info, although it seems possible that he will just give the same parent names as he did on the immigration record   

I can go to the NLA but not till at least the weekend.  Perhaps an email to St Saviour's cathedral office may be useful.  office@goulburncathedral.org.au

Hi Judith,
I have written to the Goulburn FHS for a lookup in the St Saviours records.
Yes, I am not convinced that the parents on the shipping that William & Jane are his biological parents.
The 51 census has him age 39, and her 40.
The 41 census both 30.
The 1853 shipping, both age 41.
His death 1887 in his 76th year.
Her baptism 1810.
Married 1828, she age 18, him 16-17.
No baptism found for him, but there was a lot of non-conformism in the area.
So far I have identified two William Wilsons who married a Jane in the Skipton area:
1) William Wilson of Grassington age 22 = Jane Ibbotson of Threshfield age 21 at Linton by License 12 Sep 1812 (they have a son Henry in 1823)
See https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Wilson-21011
2) William Wilson = Jane Binns @ Kildwick 6 Sep 1819
Both these couples are in the 41 and 51 censuses.
I am not seeing a baptism for Henry atm, or any baptisms to William & Jane in that time period.
Henry states parents dead in 1853.
I am thinking at this stage he was maybe the issue of a sibling, brought up in one of the William & Jane households...??
I have been trawling through Wade registers at Skipton hoping to find some clues
A few William's, and also a Henry who has a wife Jane...
thanks for your help,
Sharon
