Should I just give up now?

I guess you have probably checked out the witnesses at the wedding (yeah, I know, stating the blinking obvious!  )

No, it's a good point Spidermonkey, and one of the reasons for my post in the first place was that in my lateral searching, I too might have missed out the blinking obvious!

Sadly however... the witnesses at William James Wilson and Margaret Rees's Marriage were her father Evan Rees and her sister Selina Rees. (No Wilsons:-)

As every new Census became available... the 1901, then 1911, - I lived in hope that a Wilson rellie from Manchester would obligingly be visiting... but none were!

It's soooooo frustrating,

Well, there's still the 1921!

Hi Romilly,

Do you have a photo of your parents wedding?

Are there any odd people on it who could be from his side?

Although it is looking remarkably like he went to Wales by himself( I wonder why?) and that no one from the Wilson side attended the wedding.

Hi Carol,

No, I have no photos of my Grandparent's wedding in Swansea in 1893.

I don't know how general wedding photos were in the 1890's in South Wales?

The only photo that I have of my Wilson Grandparents, (with two sons) was sent to me from Dubai, after I managed to trace a first cousin on my father's side of the family. There are no other photos that I know of, - my mother certainly didn't have any.

Romilly.

Guy Etchells...what has he managed before please   Sandra

Romilly, I was thinking of your parents wedding,maybe some cousins or aunts and uncles from the Wilson side.

Yasmina- Guy Etchells campaigned to get the 1911 census released 2 years earlier than originally planned. I believe it was the last census that was not subject to the 100 year privacy law though.Those people completing one in 1921 signed it to agree that it would not be released till a clear 100 years had elapsed.IE 2nd Jan 2022.
