They married in a registery office and Marjory Taylor Harker (Charles' sister) was a witness. The other witness was Henry Byway.

Complicated  :)

I am sorry but I can’t see Charles or Isabella but Wilson is a common name to search for. They could have gone to Scotland or emigrated, I suppose.

All good wishes

Hello Heywood,

It's really complicated and that's why I'v been so stuck for yonks.

Will get the death records you told me about and let you know what they say.

Thank you so very much for all your time and effort in helping me. I've come further along with the Gardners and McDevitts in the past few days than I'd ever expected.

Have a wonderful day,

Marj

Thanks Marj.
I wish we could have found more concrete information.

Addit - One of the Archives in Ireland told me that a lot of records for Ulster and Nth Ireland were destroyed during WW2 so would appear that's why I'm having trouble with a lot of my Irish.

Guess the only way the puzzle may be solved would be to come across a family member who has "handed down info" of their forebears.

Best wishes, Marj
