Harold, Since the 1810 census was destroyed you're kind of handicapped in finding him in "official" records but I recently discovered a new source of information that was posted on another mailing list: http://books.google.com If you type in Hamilton Co, OH many publications show up to search. You could also try typing George Wilson 1810 or 1809 or add Hamilton Co or Ohio and see what shows up. You may hit upon a historical commentary of the area that mentions this family.

Eastern Standard Time, [email protected] writes: I have a George Wilson (1762-1844) and wife Mary who entered land in Franklin Co., IN from an unknown location in 1811. His will lists the following children: John, Joseph, William, Elizabeth, Margaret and Rachael. An entry in the LDS familysearch site lists a family with the identical names and c1800 time period from Hamilton Co., Ohio. The original submitter of this information is deceased so I am unable to find her source. Is there any evidence that this family ever lived in Hamilton Co., OH prior to 1811? I've searched this county's genealogy websites but maybe I've missed something. Any ideas? Thank you, Harold Clupper, Chester Co., PA **************Ideas to please picky eaters.
