Wilson in Darlington

[christine8]

In 1841, Mary Wilson is shown age 60 in Silver Street, plus a lodger, and Mary's grandson Joseph Dobinson.  In the next house is a Thomas Wilson with wife & family. Does anyone have any links or further knowledge of this family?

Christening, extracted IGI;

Parents, THOMAS and HANNAH
Siblings;
THOMAS, 11 April 1841
MARY JANE, 29 September 1844
WILLIAM GEORGE, 31October 1847
RICHARD, 02 June 1850

I cant find a Marriage for Thomas and Hannah.

In 1851 Census there is;
1851 census
Preston le Skerne, Durham

Thomas DOBINSON, 50, Farmer of 5 acres, born Walsingham
Hannah, 40, born Smestow, Yorkshire
Wilson, 11
Thomas, 10
Mary Jane, 6
William George, 3
Richard, 11mths
+ Thomas's mother SARAH, age 85, born Chapel in Hendrall
All children born Aycliffe. Hannah only one not born Durham
HO107/ 2384/709/17

Is it possible she was married before? As the only Marriage fro Thomas I can find on FreeBMD, June 1839,Easingham . Only Hannah on page is a DIXON

1881 census Hannah is born Doncaster, Yks c 1811 and 1861 Sneaton Yks

I havent looked for Thomas Wilson yet to try and link him to Mary.

What is the starting point for you to link Mary to your Family Tree ?

Thank you Trish for taking such an interest and so quickly.
Mary Wilson had a dau Hannah who married my 2x gt. Thomas Dobinson...the Joseph with her in 1841 was gt. grandfather, Joseph Wilson D.  Hannah in 1881 gives Doncaster as POB, but in others, as Smeaton.  She was actually christened at Gt. Smeaton in Nov 1811 and a brother William, in 1816. We have an original (1876) handwritten note by the then vicar, giving details of the marriage 13 Nov 1829 at Eryholme, of Thomas D & Hannah Wilson and a similar extraction of her bapt.
In 1841, next door to mother Mary Wilson in Silver St Darlington, is a Thomas Wilson and it would be my guess that he is related... possibly another sibling.
