Hi Gadget,
I am a Wilson and related.  New to this chat thing and researching this part of my family too. My Ancestry tree is large now and am just making sure I have all the details correct in it. https://www.ancestry.ca/family-tree/tree/119547390/family?cfpid=340187342955

Yes, I am very new to this and not sure how it all works.  Thank you everyone for helping.

I believe that Mary Anne Bratton, nee McQuiston married William Wallace Bratton who was 17 years older than her and that this Mary's mother was also a Mary "Kelly" but I could be wrong.

Mary I Mcquistion (Kelly) married Hugh McQuiston.  Their daughter born May 19 1893, also named Mary.

Mary Anne II McQuistion went on to marry a William Wallace Bratton and had 5 boys and one girl. Once boy passed away at age 1, Wallace Cecil Bratton.  Other sons names were Robert, William, James and Hugh. Daughters name was Christina Mary Anne Bratton (Bratten)

Due to William Wallace Brattons abusiveness, Mary Ann left him and the children and fled.

Mary Ann ended up marrying Oliver Wilson and moving to Vancouver BC and having Charlie Oliver Wilson.

I am wanting to know more about Mary as she is my great grandmother through my grandpa, Charlie.  Does anyone have pictures or stories to share?
