im'e having a bit of bother with my wilson family and would truly appreciate some help.this is them on 1841 census.
MARY WILSON (mother,also widow) abt 1791.manchester.
LAVINIA WILSON (daughter) abt 1821.manchester.
REBECCA WILSON (daughter) abt1821 manchester.TWINS.
LOUISA WILSON (daughter) abt1831 manchester.
MARY ANN WILSON (daughter) abt 1828 manchester.
i have managed to find BMD and census info for LAVINIA,and MARY ANN and also their mother.but i am stumped at finding anything abt REBECCA and LOUISA. i also wondered if there was any more children due to the large gaps between the births.i will be ETERNALLY grateful of any help.

The IGI shows the baptism of a Jane Wilson on the same day as that of Rebecca and Lavinia...parents Edward and Mary.


....and a John with same named parents in 1830.

Batch number C097893

1. REBECCA WILSON -
Female Christening: 14 OCT 1821 Cathedral, Manchester, Lancashire, England

2. LAVINIA WILSON -
Female Christening: 14 OCT 1821 Cathedral, Manchester, Lancashire, England

3. JANE WILSON -
Female Christening: 14 OCT 1821 Cathedral, Manchester, Lancashire, England

Jane could have been a triplet...or just a sibling baptised the same day....the original record might give more information and possibly birthdates.

Just because three children were baptised on the same day does not necessarily mean they were triplets. I have seen many,many multiple baptisms. In one case 10 children (all brothers and sisters) were baptised on the same day.
