Hi The oldest John Wilson in Greenock is 46.The oldest in the list is 58 at Inverkip. In total there are about 60 John Wilsons, so not much hope I am afraid Even more on the East Renfrew section, I had a look in case he might have been in an Institution of some kind (depends on how "weak in the head"). The ages of these are 65, 57, 66, 65, 56, 74 all at Paisley Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------- FIGHT BACK AGAINST SPAM!
