George Wilson Darnley
ID# 8986, b. September 1811, d. 28 April 1875
1833 - known as 'Wilson Dearnley/Dearnally'
1851 - after emigration, recorded as 'George W Darnley'
1875 - death recorded as 'George Wilson Darnley'
1876 - recorded as "George Darnley" at son Frank's marriage
1911 - recorded as 'George Wilson' at his daughter Mary's death.
Perhaps George's father was a 'Wilson' & his mother a 'Dearnaley/Darnley'. George's son Joseph Darnley had changed his family name to Wilson by 1901. A George Willson (born 1787, England) was listed next to the family in the 1851 Canadian census. - MED
OR
George seems to have been in Underbank in 1833. Could he be an unrecorded son of George D & Sarah Taylor who were in Underbank in 1803? see George Dearneley
John D had a son Thomas, who also used 'Wilson' for the middle name of one of his children. see George Wilson Darnley
Were John & George brothers? They both emigrated to Canada at about the same time.
Another Emma (age 18, born England 1834) is with this family group in 1851. A niece? See Emma Darnley
Brother/Cousin?:
John D & family also emigrated to the same area in Canada c.1842. see John Dearnley
John had a daughter Emma (born 1834), but she is shown with her family in 1851.
Sister/Cousin?
see Marriage Banns below: The marriage banns of Ann Dearnally & William Booth were read one week before those of Wilson D & Rachel Ellis (consecutive entries).
There is also a Thomas Darnley (with a son George Wilson Darnley) farming in Ontario in 1881. Probably another son of this George, but where was he in 1841?
Correction:
Previously, we had Hammond/Ammon Dearnley (see Ammond Dearnely) as the father of Wilson/George D. However, his calculated birth date does not fit with the other known family members.
