I am looking for information in regard to the ancestors/descendants of John Henry WILSON born abt 1818 CHESHIRE (name of village unknown unfortunately).
He may have been the John Henry WILSON transported in 1835 to Tasmania but cannot confirm as his convict record does not include 'Native Place'.
He married Harriet WILLIAMS a convict in 1849 in Hobart. Tasmania and they moved to Melbourne, Victoria abt 1857.
Harriet remarried in 1872 and on her marriage certificate she stated former husband had died in 1862 but I have not found a record of his death.
They were my great great grandparents.
He is my 'brick wall' and I know it doesn't help having a common name.
Any help appreciated.
