I have put together a few pages of info for you about James Scarlett |
from what I have found on some family trees that have been published on Ancestry. |
As you know James was the eldest of three sons from the marriage of William Frederick Wilkinson and Augusta Elvira Lucinda Sweny. |
He was born on the 3/6/1876 in Dublin South Ireland |
Their second son William Elviran was born in 1878 and died in 1885 |
Their third son was of course your father Frederick Augustus Wilkinson. |
James married Georgina Josephine Dixon there are two reports of this marriage one in 1897 and one in 1904 both in Dublin, Ireland. |
There seem to be two conflicting reports from the 1901 Dublin census one saying he was living at his parents house and was single, |
Dublin 1901 Census |
the other that he was living with his wife and their ten month old son George! |
George possibly died in WWII. |
A second son William James was born in 14 July 1902 in Dublin. |
William married Margaret E McCabe (1905-1978) on the 11/2/1924 Salem, Essex, Massachusetts, United States. |
They had five children: |
William James Wilkinson Jr (1924-1987), Thomas George Wilkinson (1926-2005), George Frederick Wilkinson (1932-2006) Obituary |
Joan Wilkinson (1934-2011), Judith Wilkinson (1937-2018) |
