Wilson, Glasgow.
« on: Saturday 04 January 20 11:23 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
Robert Wilson (son of Joseph Wilson and Margaret Friel) married Helen Farren in Iskaheen, Co. Donegal, Ireland in 1889.  I cannot find them in the Irish census of 1901/1911.  I found their son Joseph in the 1901 census in 'Ture' Donegal, staying with his uncle Patrick Farren.  It states Joseph Wilson was aged 10 years and born in Glasgow.

Would like to connect with anyone who is related to this family.

There were a Robert and Ellen Wilson, both born Ireland, aged 21 and 20, at Rottenrow, Glasgow, Blackfriars, Lanarkshire, Scotland in 1891. Not immediately jumping out in 1901.

If same couple, might be worth checking this birth:

There is a death showing in St Mary's Dundee in 1910 for a Helen Wilson/Farnan. She shows as 46 yrs old at the time of her death. Could this be Joseph's mum?
