It looks like we are cousins as Abigail Sarah Wilson is my 2nd great Grand Mother.I have copies of her Marriage Cert. which states she married Hans Reidsma on Sept. 17, 1868. But then I have several copies of her children’s birth Cert. that has the father’s name as James Henry Reidsma.
There are other inconsistencies in the Marriage Cert. Abigail Sarah Wilson’s father is stated to be William Wilson, deceased. But on her birth cert. there is no father and the mother's maiden name is Margaret Wilson. Interesting, but looks like a dead end.
The marriage cert states that Hans’s father was also Hans and deceased.

One of their children is William Henry Reidsma born Sept 12, 1872.
