Hi i'm glad you got sorted re Wilson Ellerton sometimes calling himself William Wilson Ellerton. I suspect the William came in during one of the census returns by error which sometimes happened when another member of the family gave details when the actual person was away from home. Are you a desendent from the mail line or female line? Danby Wiske is a very small hamlet and today it probably comprises of about 50 houses in those days of Wilson it probably had i estimate about 12 houses. It is interesting that Frederick? was a shoemaker as that trade ran in the family at that time my relatives in Danby Wiske were shoemakers also. If anything else i can help with drop me a line.
