Donegal / William Wilson in County Donegal abt 1750
« on: Wednesday 18 April 18 19:09 BST (UK) »
I am looking for help in finding more information on my ancestors in County Donegal.
I have found William Wilson born about 1750 and married to Esther Reed also born about 1750
William's father was William (1730-1770) and his siblings Sarah (1755-1796), Samuel (abt 1758)
and Elizabeth (1760-1760).
Esther Reed's father was Francis Reed (1730- 1787) and her Mother was Hannah (1730-1787). Her siblings Hannah (1753-1753), Jane (1754-1788) and John (1757-1814).
Both families emigrated to Nova Scotia Canada between 1760-1770.
William Wilson and Esther Reed had 10 children, all born in Nova Scotia.
I will be travelling in Donegal and would love to find any more details in what area the Wilson's and Reed's were from.
Thank you,
Bob Richards
