Surnames: Wilson, Dunn, Scanland, McMurry Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/gBB.2ACI/150.1416 Message Board Post: I have fairly complete records of the descendants of Micajah Wilson (= Eliza Scanland), son of Thomas and Nancy (Dunn) Wilson. Micajah was my great-great grandfather. As for the other children of Thomas and Nancy (Dunn) WIlson I have the following info: Polly Wilson = James Turner: This family moved to Shelby or Marion Co., MO in 1838 settling on a farm near Andrew Chapel. Listed with James and Mary Turner in the 1850 Shelby Co., MO census are Elizabeth, 28 yo (married ? Robert Hall 22 Mar. 1855); Edward, 23 yo; Albert, 20 yo; Eliza, 18 yo (married? William Wallace 28 Sept. 1856); Lucy, 16 yo (married ? Lewis Marquet 24 Dec. 1857); Mary J., 12 yo (married? David F. Turner); and Emily T. or F., 5 yo. I have little further information on this family. Nelly= James D. Causby/Cosby: I have nothing on this family other than that it stayed in Kentucky. I think I have the same census records you have. Benjamin D.: Married first 4 Feb. 1822 to Jane C. Ray. Issue: Thomas James, born 10 Nov. 1822, died 30 Nov. 1822; Prunella B., born 17 July 1825, died 16 Aug. 1849, married John Stofir 28 Oct. 1847; Nancy Elizabeth, born 8 Jan. 1829. I have no record of your Elizabeth Dunn Wilson who married Peavler. Benjamin D. married second 18 May 1826 to Dicey E. Vaughn. Issue: John Franklin, born 19 June 1853, died 18 June 1920, married Antoinette Rice 19 Dec. 1878 and Sara Lula Fisher 9 Apr. 1902. (I have pretty good records on some of the descendants); Susan Texas, born 23 Sept. 1858, died 26 Mar. 1866; James McDonald, born 16 May 1861, died 29 Mar. 1931, married Nannie Ella Houston Weatherford 18 Oct. 1883. (I have records of some of the descendants); Benjamin Dunn, Jr., born 23 Aug. 1863, died 1866. Elizabeth Wilson= William McMurry: I have extensive records on this family. Sarah= Charles Redgeway: I have nothing other than what you have on this family. Matilda= John Henderson: Issue: Nancy W. (= William H.Lightfoot. They had Matilda, William who apparently died young, Bettie, Nannie, and Sallie. The oldest child, Matilda (born Mar. 1848) married Albion Wood and they had issue of which I have some records); and John B. on whom I have no records. Lucinda=Robert Jones: I have some sketchy records on this family, based on census reports. There were apparently 9 children, not all of whom lived to adulthood. One daughter, Sarah E. = Samuel Christian and had issue. I DID find newspaper obits on both Robert Jones (born July 1804, died 16 Oct. 1784) and Lucinda (Wilson) Jones (born 1808, died 5 July 1876). Nacky=William J. Evans: Issue: William, born c. 1836 on whom I have no further records; Nancy J., born July 1838, = Columbus J. Rowland and had several children per the census records. The last records I have on them is the 1900 Macon Co., MO census. Hope this helps. If you or any other descendants of Thomas Wilson can add to these records it would be greatly appreciated. I have some records on both Thomas and Nancy (Dunn) Wilson's ancestry back in Maryland, as well as copies of deeds and the marriage bonds for all their daughters.
