Alan, thank you for all the great tips.  My eyes have dried out trying to dig through them.  I will get back tomorrow again.

Since we can't locate 'Thomas/Archibald' as father for William, unable to locate any other family members.   I will search through the links that everyone has kindly provided.

Another interesting fact; my cousin (related through William) did the 23nme.  He says he does not have any dna related Grimison relatives?  Maybe William was adopted or Thomas/Archibald wasn't his father?

I will give this a go.  I have to say this Thomas/Archibald is the bane of my existence 😩  In looking through my ancestry tree, William is the outsider because 99% or the men are named Thomas. 

Equally on my moms dad's side, the men's forname began as Archibald Scott from Isle of Mull, named his son Nixon who moved to New Zealand and subsequent men have been named Edward William starting in 1904 to present day.

I have been looking into the Weavers guilds.  Thank you for another path.

Archibald Grimason is listed as Williams father on marriage certificate.  But Thomas is listed as father on Williams death certificate.

Alan, thank you for your time.   I will take a look at this Thomas.  I hope is he is a brother because I cannot find any birth record for William, nor the Archhibald listed as his father on marriage record.   Archibald is more Scottish than Irish but no luck there either.

Hello.  Is there a repository to look up the names of weavers during 1850's?  Thank you

Yes, this is my maternal lineage.  Thomas I. was my grandmother's brother.  I am trying to go further back to William's father; William married Isabella Sprint.
