I am searching for a James T. Wilson, of the House of Arbuthnot who married an Elizabeth Aitken (Aikman on her death record). They had at least one child, a James Wilson born in 1808 who was a well known Portrait Painter in Glasgow. James Wilson, Portrait Painter married Jeannie McGregor in 1831. Jeannie died in 1862. I am searching for any information on James T. Wilson, Elizabeth Aitken, or their son James Wilson Portrait Painter that may be available.

James Wilson, Painter & Jeannie McGregor had four children:

Child #1. Jeanie Rose Wilson, born 1836, died 1872 in Glasgow, married Andrew Neilson in 1863. They had at least one child, Jeannie Rose McGregor Neilson b.1864, died 1951 in Toronto Canada. Jeanie Rose McGregor Neilson had six children, the eldest was Jeannie Hilda Katherine Williams b. 1893 in Llanstadwel Wales, d.1972 in Toronto Canada. The others were Alfred, Charlie, Ina, Alexander and George. I believe all six children emigrated to North America. Jeanie Rose Wilson is my GGGGrandmother.

Child #2. James Swan Wilson, born 1842 - other than a birth record I can find absolutely no information on this person

Child #3. Mary Buchanan Wilson, born 1845, married Buchanan Kirkwood

Child #4. Elizabeth Kate McKenzie Wilson, born 1850, her married name was Stuart

I am also searching for any information on Andrew Neilson, b.1840. After his wife died in 1872 it is believed that he remarried, possibly to a German woman by the name of Marion but I cannot find any information to support this. In addition to his daughter Jeanie Rose McGregor Neilson it is believed that they also had another child, and then more children once he remarried.

Any help anyone can offer would be much appreciated.
