I am a member of the ANESFHS (17068) My maiden name was WILSON. I asked this same query 2 years ago without success so I thought I would try again. New information may be available. My immediate interest lies with James WILSON born 1810 King Edward, Aberdeenshire.He married Isabella FORBES in 9 Dec 1846 in Huntly . James died 9 Oct 1888 age 78 as per death certificate at 9 Batcham St. Forres, Elgin County now Moray. I have searched and searched and cannot find any details of his birth. Maybe he was illigitimate I do not know. One of James WILSON's sons, James born 1860 in parish of Banff, married Isabella McKay in 1887 at Aberchirder (Foggieloan). They had a family and lived, worked and died at Aberchirder. One of their sons was my grandfather. I never knew him and have only this past year learnt of him etc. I really want to know more about my WILSON ancestors but without knowing for certain who James WILSON's ( born 1810) parents were I cannot with any certainty research back any further. I am flying out to Canada and USA this June to meet up with newly found relatives, i.e nieces of my grandfather. They would love to know more about their WILSON Scots ancestry but as yet I get stuck when I get back to 1810. Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated. Kind regards Margaret Rose nee WILSON 17068
