It is possible that I have relations by the names of Wilk (e)'s, but I have not entered in the information for my family tree where Elijah Wilce fits although I do know we have an Elijah somewhere along the line, if I find he married aCaroline Wilks I will let you know.

I'm afraid I haven't been able to find anything on Caroline before she married Peter Davis in 1849. If anyone has any information I would be grateful.

I have a caroline wilkes in my family tree born 1835 Walford,Herefordshire. when you read her marriage cert her father's name is William Wilks, even though her's has the "e" inserted after the "k" Caroline married Elijah Wilce. in 1852 Caroline's mothers surname is Tommey is there a connection to your Wilks.

It certainly seems possible. When your first message popped up, I wondered if John Wilks had died and Mary remarried John Phillips?

I am unable to find a birth and parents for Caroline Wilks born about 1824 in Aston Ingham(this info from various censuses). She married Peter Davis in 1849 in Westbury(from free BMD. Has anyone any ideas?
