William Sorell and his connections are interesting in that here, two Wilson families about which we have a great deal of information converge with his marriage to Eliza Wilson daughter of William Borradaille Wilson and Grace Terry.
The ‘Borradaille’ Wilson family has been thoroughly researched by their descendants over the past 20 years. There is no connection with our Wilsons, the Borradaille line coming from Nottingham in England: their story including their alleged link to Royalty is set out in the ‘Connections’ page. Below is a 3 generation descendants chart for William & Eliza and beneath that is a partial pedigree chart for Eliza.
