Looking for Stephen Thornton Wilson born 1894

Marian Report 18 Aug 2018 18:04

Annie Eliza Byers baptised 19.7.1865 Marske, Yorkshire parents Robert and Ann Byers. Marries William Wilson on 25 December 1885 at Marske. Anne is 21 and William 23. William’s parents are Thomas Wilson and Ann Thornton.

1891 census Cleveland Street Skelton Yorkshire (off Family search)

William 28 can't see an occupation
Anne E 24
Robert 5
Thomas 71 father bricklayer labourer
Edward Hart 20 lodger ironstone miner

Their children are George William Wilson born and died 1890. Thomas born 1891. Stephen Thornton Wilson as above.

There is an Annie Elizabeth Wilson dies 1896 Guisborough area aged 32 and I think this is Annie although age is slightly out. This is 1901 census

1901 census Arthur Terrace Marske

William John Williamson 38 South Shields
Sarah Ann 40 Skelton
Percy Williamson 1 New Marske
Stephen Wilson 6 adopted son Skelton

Sarah Ann is William Wilson's sister.

I can't find Stephen on 1911 census - he is not with William and Sarah. Can't find marriage or burial for him either. I can't find William either so he may have died.

Can anyone see him?

The link below is a link for Annie Elizabeth's parents and siblings and I have posted it so that no one wastes their time looking for her birth etc.

You say:
"I can't find Stephen on 1911 census - he is not with William and Sarah. Can't find marriage or burial for him either. >>>>>>I can't find William either so he may have died.<<<<<<<"

Presumably you don't mean William Williamson ?

Hello Argyll, I mean his father William Wilson although there is this for 1911

1911 census Guisborough

William Wilson 49 widower inmate formerly lamplighter born Skelton

Don’t know if this is him because I don't know his occupation. I am wondering if this is the workhouse. Family search doesn't reveal much.

Thanks
