Searching for info on John Wilson/Willson, born 1680 or before. Married Alice Whitfield at Grange near Charlemont. They were Quakers.

There’s a copy of the Quaker records for Grange Meeting House in the NLI Dublin and in PRONI, Belfast. And all the baptisms, marriages and burials were copied to the Provincial Meeting in Lisburn. So you can search either. You might find the marriage, other family events and mention of the Wilson household in those records. They are not on-line and a personal visit is required to view them. I have worked with the set in PRONI in the past and they are quite extensive. It takes quite a while to read all the minutes. Allow half a day.
