Cavan / Re: Wilson's in County Cavan
« on: Saturday 14 November 20 09:53 GMT (UK)  »
Thanks for this reply. There is a John Wilson who is a brother of George and Josiah but hid DofB is 1865 and DofD is 1916. My grandfather was George and we have found details on him but not his siblings. I append an extract from the Family Tree to show the siblings and the link to my great great grandfather.  Does this help? I welcome your suggestions.
Thanks  Noel Wilson

I’ve been watching this thread for many years now and I just thought I’d throw into the arena as townlands are being mentioned. My that my family came from Loughnafin/ Rockfield my grandfather Charles Haughton Wilson b 1883 was a farmer in Killeshandra, although I think he had a corn mill in Springfield/ Cessagh/Corradarren.
Charles was the son of John Wilson (b1854)who was married to Mary Jane Haughton (b1861), he married Eliza Morrison (b1884)
Don’t know if there any links here.

Thanks for this reply which is appreciated. We have the census data so know the other siblings of George's (my grandfather) however so far we cannot trace further details. One of the family was Josiah and in one census he was residing with his brother George. The other family members were not given. Do you know where one can search for Josiah's and the other sibling's birth, marriage and death certificates? Attempts via, for example, ancestry.com and with DNA results have so far been unsuccessful. I know that George married a Margaret Wasson and they lived in Canningstown and their home remains and is still occupied by the family of the man who purchased it. Your link to my grandfather's death record fills in another part of the jigsaw.  Many Thanks Noel

I would love to hear from anyone with Wilson ancestors from Cavan who has done an ancestry DNA test. I have recently done an ancestry DNA test and would like to see if we have matched. Thanks.

My daughter has had an ancestry DNA test undertaken. Our Cavan links are to a George Wilson (1828–1886): Date of Death: 20 Apr 1886 at Beglieve, Bailieborough, County Cavan, Ireland.

This may be helpful to you.

I'm the Wilson referred to by Fiona MacDonald and just encountered this site tonight as my son-in-law has been trying to compile the Wilson family tree. My father, Thomas Robert, was George Wilson's son and Josiah was his uncle. Unfortunately we cannot identify who George and Josiah's (and rest of that family) father was as my dad and his siblings never knew their grandfather. The eldest in dad's family would have been around 3 years old when their grandfather died, from what we know. My daughter has had a DNA test undertaken so should this help others, as well as ourselves, fill in some gaps then do please advise.
