Endnotes

1. TLH.ftw, Date of Import: Apr 2, 1999.
A note about the LDS information on this family: Surely, this is the family that I am researching. I found correlation between Elizabeth Corless(e)/Corlass's marriage to John Wilkinson in the same year and her children which confirmed that it was the same family that was written about by my Great Uncle Robert D. Wilson and was the same information existing in our family records. The information about the locations of Horton-on-Craven and Gisburn (actual spelling- I've found it on a map) are the same. Although I have found a bit of a mystery: our John's father [John here] who LDS says was married to Ann(a) BROWN(E) was said to be Christopher in our family records and LDS says he name was John also. Ann(a) BROWN(E) was absent from our family records but I have found her name in a cousin's (Kay Hustad) information.

Coming soon: The Descendants of Christopher WILKINSON (son of Christopher WILKINSON and Frances HUTCHINSON) and Elizabeth EARLE
