Derry (Londonderry) / Re: PICKERING/PICKERAM and WILSON

I too have a Pickering/Wilson connection. My great great grandparents were Henry Pickering & Isabella Wilson and thanks to this thread, I found out their exact marriage date (thanks kingskerswell). I believe they had 9 children, 1 being my great grandmother, Margaret Pickering, who ended up in Staten Island, NY. I have taken 2 trips to this area (N. Antrim) from the US and have fallen in love with the place. I can't believe I was so close to Magherafelt and so much family history and didn't even know it. Can't wait to make the next trip & learn more. I do have some other names & dates if any of my "cousins" are interested:)
