Thanks Mc I'll take a look at that one, it's a possibility. There are lots of Thomas Wilkins around unfortunately, it seems to be a very common name.
Rwenman I haven't looked for any Wilkins ancestors outside of Wiltshire yet. Thomas's descendant's gravitated south through Shaftesbury and Wimborne in Dorset. I wouldn't discount a Hampshire connection though and I would be interested to hear about your Portsmouth Wilkins.
I am pretty sure now that Thomas's mother in law was Susannah Bunter, not Hunter.
