Searching For Family
posted by Sharon on 26 Jan 2021 at 5:26 pm
I am trying to locate family of my Dad. Reginald Leslie Wilson born Feb 15, 1917 in Bexhill. Ellen (Bourne) Wilson was present at his birth. He went to Canada when he was 2. He was a WW11 Veteran and he passed in 1997 in Ontario Canada. While going through some of his belongings I came across a couple of old Xmas cards signed from Lily, Wally and Family. I believe that may be a relative. He is related to John Wilson and Ellen (Bourne) Wilson. I think he had a brother Stanley Wilson and a sister Ivy. My father never spoke of his family in England , only those he knew in Canada. Clara Wilson(Marriott) was a relative as well not sure if she was his mother or his sister. There was a double military wedding for the Wilson girls who married two Marriott boys . 12 January 1918. Any help any one could offer me I would be very appreciative to receive.
I wish to pass on my fathers life story, his military career etc with his family.
