Wilson of Ottery St Mary

[cewsss]

I am looking for further information to what I have on the Wilsons of Ottery St Mary.  My 4*great grandfather was William Wilson, and he had a number of children.  He married a lady called Sarah Bovett.  I would like to find more information about William Wilson

Hi

 I've checked my Ottery St Mary Marriages from 1798 to 1837 and there is only one William Wilson marriage recorded - William Wilson married to Caroline Bastin on Sept 15, 1833.

On the IGI there is a Sarah Bovett married to James Wilson in Ottery St Mary in 1840
