Help? I just came across an old biography (published in1897) while researching my 3g grandfather Benjamin WILSON in Sheboygan, WI and my 2g grandfather William WILSON b. 9-12-1846 in NY d. 9-1-1914 in Grand Traverse Co.,MI. The article states that " Benjamin WILSON was a fourth generation descendant of Alexander WILSON, who came from Londonderry, Ireland to Londonderry, New Hampshire, in 1719. He was a native of Northern Ireland, of Scotch ancestry, like all of his neighbors. He settled on one of the "exempted farms", and on account of his heroic service at the siege of Londonderry, Ireland in 1688-89, was exempted from taxation as long as the colony remained under British rule. He died there March 4, 1742 aged ninety-three years." Since I am fairly new at this and have just been bitten by the "bug." I am at a loss. Is there anything in Londonderry lookups that will help me fill in the missing four generations? I am unfamiliar with the historical references in the article.
