George Wilson Tartaraghan, County Armagh, Ireland
« on: Friday 01 April 22 16:28 BST (UK) »
Hi
I searched the boards and could not find anything on the George Wilson I am inquiring about, my apologies in advance if I missed it.

Thanks to members of this community (one in particular!), I have, after many years, discovered the parents of my great grandfather Thomas Wilson b. abt. 1861 Ballynary, Tartaraghan, Armagh.

His parents were George Wilson (abt. 1829-1889) and Frances Greenaway (abt 1827-1884) m Apr 11, 1850.  Their children, that I've identified are:  my gg grandfather, Thomas,  James, Anne, Jane, Mary, Elizabeth, Sarah, Margaret, Frances.

I know from George and Frances' marriage record that his father was also George Wilson

I am looking for any information on this earlier George Wilson (I believe b abt 1800 Tartaraghan, Armagh) d. 1877), potentially who is his wife was, his parents, etc.

Also if anyone has any info on whether the second George and Frances had any other children beside the ones I listed above, I always thought there were more sons, I would appreciate it.

Thank you,
Laura

Here's Ballynarry townland-

The George Wilson of Ballynar(r)y who died in 1889 was married according to his death certificate-

I can't see a death for a George Wilson died 1877 in same registration district (Lurgan) in 187- closest is a George Wilson d.1877 age 72  :-\

Here's the 1850 marriage for George Wilson & Frances Greenaway-

Death of Frances Wilson in 1884-
