Hello, In 1859 when your great grandfather was 8 years old there were 2 Wilson households recorded in the townland of Dyan,Aghaloo the head of one being James Wilson and the head of the other William Wilson. It might be reasonable to assume that one of these men was your great great grandfather and the other closely related maybe a brother or even the father a possible great great great grandfather. I think you should look at the Aghaloo Church registers of baptism and marriage. best regards Robert www.ulsterancestry.com > From: gc-gateway@rootsweb.com > To: NIR-TYRONE-L@rootsweb.com > Date: Thu, 8 Nov 2007 19:13:37 +0000 > Subject: Re: [NIR-TYRONE] Tyrone/Donegal genealogy > > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Author: bes1945 > Surnames: wilson > Classification: census > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.ireland.tyr.general/2346.66/mb.ashx > > Message Board Post: > > Hi .I am trying to research the wilson family who resided in Dyan Co Tyrone. My Great grandfather was born in a place called Dyan circa 1851 but there I am stuck. I believe his parish was aghaloo. I would love to know of his parentage and if he had any siblings. he came to England (liverpool )in the 1870s > > Important Note: > The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
