Robert Wilson Birth
« on: Sunday 19 April 09 01:23 BST (UK) »
I am looking for Robert Wilson's birth date and his parents name.  I know his father's name was John Wilson.  Robert married Catherine Tench Foster on Dec, 19, 1914 in Northumberland he was 28 years old when he got married.  He died in United States in Wyoming of a coal mine accident.  I would love to find out his mothers name.  That puts him born around 1886.

Hi again DanNette

You have their marriage certificate, so can you tell us what was John Wilson's occupation and Robert's address when he married Catherine?  I know from your other post they married in Morpeth district.

Then perhaps we can find the family in the census, as there are so many Wilsons in the area, and of course he could have been born anywhere in the country

Robert's father was a Colliery Timberman.  And they lived at 38 Fourth Single Row North Seaton.

Still unable to find him for certain, most John Wilsons are Coal Miners and that could cover Colliery Timberman

Do the marriage witness names give any clues, perhaps one from the Wilson side of the family would be a help
