In January 1855 he was informant on the death certificate of my GGGrandfather, William Matthews, he was listed as 'occupant of the deceased's house', and with the occupation of shoemaker. The Wilsons were still in Colac in 1857, listed in the census. (Census in the book, Year of Hope: 1857 in the Colac District, by Dawn Peel.)
