Thank all of you so much.  I know Hannah Jackson was my great grandmother and they were married in Hampshire.  She committed suicide in 1895 in St Olave Southwark London.  Mary Kenworthy would be my step great grandmother.  I think great grandfather was married to Hannah's sister, Elizabeth.  All the census reports I have looked at and my grandparent's marriage banns all point to James Wilson being born some time around 1853, so I'm ruling out John and Bridget as his parents.  Once again, thank you all so much.

There is only 1 James Wilson Pickthall (or any other variation) in the birth reg. between 1848 & 1854 -  Born 1849

1861, 1871, 1881 ages 12,22,32 ie born 1849

1891 not found

1901 age 47

1911 age 59

so as he got older he varied his age perhaps to be a nearer match to his various wives?

a tree on ancestry from a direct descendant of Ralph Henry (incl a photo) has James Wilson's parents as John & Bridget
