I am trying to trace one of ancestors Robert WILSON and his family, who moved to Medford, Oregon in the 1880s after first living at Macomb, Illinois. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find about anything about this period of Robert Wilson's life or the further progress of his family. I wonder if anyone could offer any help, perhaps from census look-ups or any other source? I have the following data about Robert Wilson: Robert Wilson was born in 10th June 1850, in Ossett, Yorkshire England. Robert was the third son of Mark Wilson and Elizabeth (Naylor) Wilson who moved with their family to the USA in 1856 and eventually settled in Emmet Twp, McDonough County, Illinois. Robert Wilson married Nancy D. Bowen (born 28th May 1856 in Illinois) on the 20th March 1878. His occupation is listed in the 1880 census as a farmer at Emmet Township, Illinois. Sometime between October 1881 and January 1884, Robert Wilson left Illinois and moved his family west to Medford, Oregon. Robert and Nancy Wilson had seven children: Maud E. Wilson born 28th February 1879 at Macomb, Illinois. She married John Day on 16 Aug 1905 and died 28th November 1939 aged 50. She is buried in Portland, Oregon. They had two boys. Grace I. Wilson born 13th March 1880 at Macomb, Illinois married Charles Schleichert. Willard Wilson born 12th October 1881 at Macomb, Illinois - buried in Medford, Oregon. Anna Wilson born 8th January 1884 at Medford, Oregon married George Eads. Jessie B. Wilson born 8th July 1886 at Medford, Oregon married Cabell Breckenridge Garnett born 24th July 1868 in Locust Dale, Madison County, Virginia. Jessie Wilson died 6th February 1964 aged 75 in Los Angeles County, California. Her husband Cabell, who died February 17th 1951 aged 82, also in Los Angeles County, California, predeceased her. Nancy B. Wilson born 30th May 1888 at Medford, Oregon married Fred Day. Nancy Wilson died on May 28th 1958 aged 69 years in Los Angeles County, California. Frank Wilson born 10th March 1890 at Medford, Oregon. Robert Wilson died 10th April 1919 in Medford, Oregon and Nancy (Bowen) Wilson died 9th May 1935 in Medford, Oregon. Any help would be gratefully received. Thanks in advance. Steve Wilson Wetherby, West Yorkshire England
