My Wilson ancestors migrated from McMinn County, TN and arrived in Barry County about 1853. The migration included three brothers and a sister. One of the brothers was James Matthew Wilson. The name James apprears in several generations of this family. I do not have Larkin in my data base. I noticed the subject line includes the name ELLIS. I think they were in the same migration. There are marriages between Ellis and Wilson families. A daughter of the James Wilson above married John R. Ellis. Larry Wilson
