Quite a bit has been found since I last posted on this site. For example we now know that Richard R. Wilkinson was married twice, once to Jane Crittendon and then to sister (possibly) Ada J Crittendon. With them, he had 8 children. Richard R. Wilkinson was born in Nova Scotia in 1848 to mother Temperance (unknown maiden name) and father unknown Wilkinson. Temperance was born in 1809 or 1808 in Nova Scotia as was Richard and Ada. Richard's children were as follows: Joseph R. Wilkinson (abt1870), Aida V Wilkinson (married unknown Dean)(b: abt 1871- d: abt 1953), Effie M. Wilkinson (b:abt 1873), Edward A. Wilkinson (b: 17 Nov 1874- d:1943), Charles W. Wilkinson (b:20 Sep 1876), Clarence Gaffney Wilkinson (b:02 Jul 1878 - d:1953), Ella J. Wilkinson (b:Jan 1883), Charles H Wilkinson (b:Apr 1889)... Clarence G. Wilkinson was my great-grandfather. He was the first motorcycle police officer in Gloucester , MA, USA and was married to Gertrude D. Douglass, daughter of William S. Douglass and Ellen Nora (maiden name unknown). Together Clarence G and Gertrude had three children. I am looking for any information regarding this entire family. Clarence G and Gertrude's children were Ellen G (marries Hugh Burke and together they had three or four children the oldest of which passed at the age of 19 or 20 of suicide), then there was Alice who married twice, one to a Douglas Motley with whom I believe she had one son and then to Stanley Colson). My grandfather Clarence Edward was the youngest and he married my grandmother Abigail E. Greehy. Together they had four chidren, the oldest two being a set of twin boys ( one deceased at birth, the other being Stephen Edward Wilkinson Sr.), then Kevin Joseph whom I grew up knowing as my father , and last but not least John P. Wilkinson)..... I am looking for information on any of these people such as Richards fathers name, Temperance's maiden name, Alice's son, Ellens husbands b-day, and their childrens names and so on....Any help would be greatly appreciated..... Thank you in advance....
