Hi Jillity, I wonder have I picked you up incorrectly. My information is that Hannah Knox married James Wilson. They had 7 daughters that lived into adulthood. One of those daughters was a Hannah, but she married into the Stanhope family, another prominent Anglo Irish family.

Re-reading your posts, there might be some confusion - ie that your info is that Hannah Wilson, was a daughter of James Wilson, married a Knox etc. One or both of of us might have a crossed wire along the way. I'll find you on Ancestry and you can take a look and see if there's common ground.

Hi Jillity, I'm a decendent of Hannah and James. Hannah died quite young, in her 30s. She had 7 daughters with James Wilson. She died on 22 Apr 1784. I've been to her grave in County Meath. She is buried with her father in law, also James, a daughter who died as an infant and her sister in law (also died as a young woman). On this forum you'll see I queried a Hannah Jane Masterson - that would have been her granddaughter. I think my ancestry family tree is probably the most up to date for Hannah and James - I can provide you with a link and other useful info. Information about James is very, very scarce - he's my area of focus at the moment. It's just strange that I can't find out where he is buried given he was a prominent, wealthy, Anglo Irish landowner who married daughters of two other such prominent families.

I can post more again on this, just happened to find your post late at night when I was Googling for any leads on James Wilson!

Thank you ozranga and Johnorrett - that's good to know.

I mentioned another individual in my original post - Hannah Jane Johnson (or Masterson). When i was looking through a document on family history that a relative compiled many years ago, she has Hannah noted as being buried in Ford Cemetery. I had not seen that before and my research had unearthed a record of Hannah being interred in the Catacombs in Anfield. Interesting though, the Anfield record states there was no service and it states it was 'temporarily'. So, now i'm wondering might she have actually been moved to Ford from Anfield. She died on 16 February 1890 and the anfield interment was on 20 February 1890. I wonder might it be possible to check whether she could have been moved to Ford at some point after that?

Thank you for your assistance to date, which is much appreciated.

Hi ozranga, everyone

First time poster. A 3 x great grandfather, James Masterson is buried in grave 1120 in Ford Cemetery. He died in 1876.

I'm not actually too sure what his connection to Liverpool was. His wife (possibly ex wife) also died in Liverpool in 1890. She had the surname Johnson at that point. She wasn't living with James in Liverpool prior to his death - she was in Canada. She's interred in the Catacombs in Anfield. Although 'temporarily' according to the records.

Anyway, the Hannah Jane info is a digression (just adding for context) . I'd be interested to know if James' grave is marked and if anyone else is buried there. That might shed light on the Liverpool connection. Thank you very much.

Madu
