Notes - Based on the 1841, 1851 and 1861 census I believe that
James McNair married a girl called Wilton
They had at least 3 children
His wife died
Her sister, Hannah, came to live with James before 1841
James & Hannah then had 2 children Thomas and Elijah
James & Hannah probably never married - in the 1861 census Hannah is listed as unmarried and her two sons are living with her using the name Mc Nair Wilton
Born in Helmerby, near Ripon
1841 census shows only 1 family of Wiltons in that village
Possible brother George.
1841 Census HO 107/1249 B12 F006 P07
Also in later census he is listed as George Wilton Jnr, implying father also George.
