Hello, I am still trying to find the parents of this Samuel Wilson. I have recently found his wife's parents and hope this might help in finding more on Samuel. Please, if anyone is familiar with him, let me know!

Boies, Sr.. Genealogy of the Boies Family of Pennsylvania and adjoining counties of Eastern Ohio. 1300 Higiscus, McAllen, TX 78501 512-682-0956. Anna Boies is not included in my 682 page book on the Quaker Irish Boyces descended from Richard Boyes (1600's) Co. Antrim, Ireland. Her grandfather - David - may be from that family - but no proof. Switch the "i" with "y" which was frequently done. However Anna is mentioned in a rather haphazard rendition entitled " Genealogy of the Boies Family of Pennsylvania and adjoining counties in Eastern Ohio." compiled by Robert E. Boies, Sr. of McAllen, Texas in 1986. It is not indexed. A copy was in the Citizen's Library in Washington, Pa. and probably in Carnegie Library in Pittsburgh. He says that Anna Boies b. 4 April 1811 was the sixth of 12 children of John (b. in Ireland) and Nancy ______ b. 1779 in Maryland. John was the second oldest and one of 10 children of David Boies and ________ Forsyth Boies the daughter of John. Their first five children were born in Ireland.
