Hi
I came across your thread while I was googling! and I managed to find out what happened to John Wishlaide (born 1836). I found him in 1841, he was being looked after by his Aunt and her family. Louisa Wishlaide (born 1812) who married Francis Landon. At the time she had three daughters, Elizabeth (born 1837), Rebecca (born 1839) and Caroline (born 1841)
His sister Frances, was in the workhouse, I don't know why she wasn't being looked after by family. I can't find him in the 1851 census., to all avail! She was still in the workhouse until 1851, she managed to get out and go to London where she married a Buckingham and had two children, Frances Mary (born 1860) and Selina Elizabeth (born 1868). I believe Frances Mary may have died when still in her twenties, she spent a little time in the hospital and can't seem to find her past the census of 1881.
I find the whole family fascinating! Especially Mary and Edward Hooton! It appears that they were quite unconventional!
