Dear Frances, thank you for your help. As you can imagine the Wilson surname is proving to be awful to trace. I have as facts Ellen/Elinor/Eleanor Wilson was married to Henry Kermode in 1836. Henry was indeed born 1766!! and they had a son Henry in 1838. On the 1841 census Ellenor was 45 years and in 1851 50 years. They lived in Knockaloe, Patrick on both census records. She died aged 56 and buried 25.9.1854 at Knockaloe. I know the dates dont match but do they ever around that period? So we are looking around the 1800 mark i figure! The census tells me she was born in Ireland. I hope this helps. Thanks for your kind help.
