WILSON Siblings - Charlotte & Jane * Completed *

[MissyJ137]

Thanks Essie. Thomas WILSON's father was also Thomas (mother was unknown) so the second one looks more correct as I have him recorded as being born in 18 Sep 1812 which would make him abt 78.

Not sure about these notices? No children mentioned.

The Advertiser (Adelaide, SA) Wednesday 24 August 1904
WILSON_ On the 6th August, at Rose-street, Prospect, Elizabeth, relict of the late Thomas Wilson, and sister of E. R. Draper, of Linwood, S.A., aged 90 years. Home papers please copy.

E. R. DRAPER appears to be Edward Robinson DRAPER who lived at Noarlunga in the 1850s

But this was supposedly the husband of Elizabeth of the same address?

Elizabeth's maiden name was DRAPER before her marriage to Thomas WILSON. I haven't searched for any of her siblings yet. Her parents were William DRAPER & Elizabeth ROBINSON. I know her father died in England in 1846.

I'll check out the Islington Cemetery and see what I can find.

Well, it seems Thomas died in SA and not in VIC afterall.
The Biographical Index SA has the family arriving from VIC in 1865.
The parents later lived at suburban Prospect.

I can see the marriage of Jane to Hugh MENADUE 10 Jul 1873 in SA and of Charlotte to Alfred WILLS 24 Feb 1872 in Adelaide.

Possible death of Jane in The Chronicle 18th July 1840 (if the marriage is correct). It's the same address as her parents lived.
