Just found your thread and have a feeling that you have just brought together some information I have on the Wilson family.  My Grandfather was John Wilson from Edinburgh his father Henry Murray Wilson from Linlithgow.  Years ago I found a Will (on line) for Henry Murray Wilson wherein he left Jinkabout Mill to one of his sons.  I am just about to look through my information for this copy of the Will as I am in recent contact with a 4th cousin who's family originated in Linlithgow and Canada. We are both interested to see if there is a link.  If anyone has any other information that will help tie up the loose ends I'd be very grateful.

Worcestershire Lookup Requests / Looking for Mary Cook b1831

I am having trouble finding out anything about my G-G-Grandmother Mary Cook who was born in Malvern-Link, Worcestershire, UK.  She would have been born 1831.

She lived in Birmingham at some time as a young woman before moving the Neen Sollars in Shropshire amongst other places.  Not even sure if she is Cook by birth or Cook by marriage.  She lived with her daughter Sarah and son-in-law James Danks from at least the age of 40.

On Mary's daughters wedding certificate it states that Samuel Cook as Father but I am lead to believe, from very reliable family members, that this is in fact Granddad not Dad.

Sorry to be so vague but I have little to work on.  I would be very grateful for any information.

Worcestershire Lookup Requests / Census Lookup for Cook(e)

I am having trouble finding out anything about my G-G-Grandmother Annie OR Mary Cook(e) who was born in a cottage called The Nutshell in a village just outside Malvern.  She would have been born about 1830/1835 and I believe her Father was Jonathan Cook(e) and her Mother possibly Elizabeth. 

She lived in Birmingham at some time as a young woman before moving the Neen Sollars in Shropshire.  She may have married a Thomlinson, Thomas or Cohen who was a surgeon at Birmingham General Hospital, she was divorced and re-married a Danks but when this all happened I have no information.  There is a possibility that she may have returned to Birmingham when she re-married.

Sorry to be so vague but I have little to work on.  Any information I would be very grateful.

Hi,
My G-Grandmother was friends of a Lady Amphlett who lived at Amphlett House in Bromsgrove.  Amphlett House is still standing and is at the back of St. John's Nursing Home.
