Ellen Wilson

Ellen Wilson born c1833 Kirby Lonsdale, Westmorland

Well I found a link to my Wilson/Brown line only for the seeds of doubt to who Ellen Wilson's father was to be implanted in my brain.

I had realised that her mother Eleanor Wilson, c1812 Whinfell, Westmorland had married Thomas Brown, c1802 Burton in Lonsdale, Yorkshire in 1838 and they had gone on to have 8 children together, but I had led myself to believe that Ellen was just born before they got married.

But as we all know WE CANNOT PRESUME ANYTHING, so I want/need proof of who her father was. The IGI has not been helpful at all in this case as there is no trace of Ellen's christening so its off to the records office I need to go, hopefully by the end of this week.
