John Wilson Sr's widow (second wife Jane/Jean) moved to Mason County, Kentucky with most of their children. The following deed indicates that John Wilson Jr. was living in Greenville County, South Carolina in 1797. I have managed to track down most of the children of John Sr, but know nothing about John Jr. Does anyone have a John Wilson in Greenville co., SC???? Thomas Clawson married Elizabeth Wilson, daughter of John and Jane(Jean) Wilson Sr., so John Wilson was giving power of attorney to his brother-in-law. I have a number of deeds showing that John and Mary (Wilson) Jones, another brother-in-law and sister of John Wilson Jr's sold land to many of the children of John and Jane(Jean) Wilson Sr. in Mason and Fleming Counties, Kentucky including the following Thomas Clawson.
