Thomasine was bur. May 26, 1837 Hougham age 82 at St. James Dover. In 1838/39 Wilson was a grocer/tea dealer living at 1 Trevanion St. Dover. Pigot's 1839 Directory also shows Wilson as a livery stable keeper at 11 Trevanion St. Wilson was a grocer in 1841 living on Trevanion St. His daughter Susannah Nowers and her family were living with him. Wilson died Sept. 11, 1844 according to St. James Dover MI. He was bur. Sept. 16, 1844 age 86 in a vault in St. James Churchyard. Wilson left a Will (Canterbury Consistory Court Will Book 71 #94 Dover 1845)

      Note: Trevanion Street was a narrow thoroughfare leading from St. James' Churchyard to the sea. At the seaward end of the street was Trevanion House. That was modern, but near its site, and extending over land on the cliff side northwards, was the mansion of John Trevanion who became a Dover resident and freeman in 1769
