I am looking for records of the Bilk family who lived in Northwood for many years – the first record I have goes back to 1740 – to John Bilk. Does anyone know any history of William Bilk who planted the umbrella tree on Queens Road in 1790? I have found no trace of him in the Island’s Record Office in Newport.
I would love to hear if anyone has any knowledge of this family – my email address is:
