Find Ancestors

Joanna, this is a six-year-old thread, and Gillian won't be looking for replies here now.

You can try sending her a private message - just click on her name at the top of he post. If she has kept her email address updated with GR, she will be notified that there's a message from you in the system, and then she may, with luck, reply.

On the other hand, there are many reasons why she may not either receive or be able to reply to your message.

Good luck!

Hi Gillian,
I am a direct descendant of the Reverend William Rimington (Reginald Henry Remington-Wilson's uncle through his father James Wilson Rimington-Wilson of Broomhead Hall). James married Jane Wallas in June 1849 in Madeira, daughter of the sugar-cane merchant, Robert Wallas, of that island.
As I understand it, Reginald himself had no children however his older sister, Harriet M Wilson married Col. Sir Alexander Moncrieff and had 7 children that I know of: Malcolm, Maud, Gerard, Alaric, Roger, Mary & Duncan.
Reginald's younger brother, Henry, married Ethel Mary Butler and I know of 3 children that they had: Henry Edmund (b.1899), Lettice & Pamela (twins b. 1900).
I have a far broader tree for this family than is possible to give you here but if you would like any further information then please do get in touch and I'll be happy to share my genealogical research.
I would be very interested to know your connection to the family whether genetic or via the drawing you mention above.
Kind regards,
Joanna
