1851 census lookup please for Dinder nr wells

[risquenun]

I'm trying to identify the wife and family of John Wilson of Dinder. His daughter Elizabeth Gardley WILSON married John Grant ABBOTT on 8th Dec 1844 at Dinder. Elizabeth and her father John WILSON were both paper makers. I am also looking for James Abbott and his family also of Dinder. He was a skinner at the time of his son John Grant ABBOTTS wedding. There may be a 6 year old child shown -Elizabeth Wilson ABBOTT.
John Grant Abbot had by 1851 moved to Leeds and remarried (showing himself as a batchelor on his marriage cert) -possibly bigamy as I cannot find a death of Elizabeth Gardley Abbott.
All help would be appreciated. Many Thanks

Thanks for all the help.
The mystery deepens.... John  Grant Abbott seems to have led a very interesting if not honest early life.
I have lots of his possessions - shame they can't tell the story.
Once again many thanks.

I have recently seen your request re Wilson Dinder, Somerset. I am also doing research into a John Wilson Papermaker but I think your John wilson was a red herring for me. Your Elizabeth  is Elizabeth Yardley Wilson  (not Gardley) somewhere here I have the marriage certificate. I spent some time on this family only to discover that i was chasing the wrong Wilson's.
Please come back to me and I will let you know what I have discovered of that side of the family.

Hi Ken. You can contact me on my email address MODERATOR COMMENT: email address removed to avoid spam and other abuses. Please use personal message system to share email addresses. Thank You
It is interesting you have done some work on John Wilson.
I too have the marriage certificate of Elizabeth Gardley or Yardley Wilson and I had a note from the registrar who was unable to work out which was correct.
She married my Great great Grandfather in Dec 1844 and had a child Elizabeth Wilson Abbott in Jan 1845!
