I wonder why James changed his name.  Looking at the newspapers he seems to be a respectable man as James or Jim Gee.
There is a James Finn who was always in bother, he seems to move between Oswestry and Wrexham. 
Perhaps he wanted people not to think it was him.

Thanks,  I just couldn't find them.

I'm struggling with birth registration for the children in order to find a marriage. I thought Gee would be easy 😃

James Finn married Honor Burke in 1855 in Wrexham.  Civil marriage.
