Diane Ainsley Researching: Ainsley/Aynsley, Allison/Allinson, Mangles, Williamson Hello Diane, I too am researching "Williamson" but the rest of your names are not familiar to me. My G. Grandfather was Thomas Forster Williamson, b. 1859 in South Shields. His father was John Williamson, a mariner, possibly born in Shetland. John is my "brick wall". Any help with knocking it down would be much appreciated! Regards, Eileen
