Hello, I am searching the family of my grandfather Earl Kelly Wilson, born 1901 in Webster Co. WV. His father was James L. Wilson, born about 1849. I am not sure who James L's father was. I think it was Daniel Wilson, son of William F. Wilson, son of William Wilson Jr., son of William Wilson Sr., (father of Col. Benjamin Wilson.) This is my theory. William F. Wilson is living in Barbour Co. in 1850. He is living two doors down from his son Daniel, with his son James L. Wilson, age 1. In 1851, that part of Barbour turns into Upshur Co. and James L. is there in 1860 and 1870. Before 1880 James L. Wilson marries Bell Lee and is living with her family in Webster Co. WV. Bell dies before 1900 and 50 year old James L. marries his neighbor's 24 year old daughter, Delilah Cogar, my G-grandmother. I am looking at land records and see that a William F. Wilson owned land in Randolph and Barbour counties. There are a lot of Wilson's that own land in the 1790's Randolph County. I think at least some of these are Col. Benjamin Wilson's brothers. Do you have the list with William Wilson Sr.'s children? Also. William Jr. had a son, William Friend Wilson. I found a story that a Joseph Friend left a daughter, Polly, in the care of William Sr., (father of Col. Ben) and that she died in Webster Co. WV. Mary Bird Wilson, daughter of Col. Ben, died in Braxton Co. in 1837. There is a chance that she was also in the same area as Polly Friend as Webster was not formed until 1863 , from part of Braxton Co. Any help you can provide to me with my theory would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time, Allen F. Wilson Jr.

I am just looking for PA Wilsons. I have connections there in the Chester Co. area that I'm trying to connect loose ends too.

Looking for land transactions for 1795-1800 for Bath and Greenbrier for: James Wilson and Charles Ramsey. I'm "told" that it is probably Bath and that these men has transactions together. James m. Sarah Mounts in Bath Co. in 1795 and their first child was b. in Greenbrier. Charles Ramsey m. Polly Mounts..and Agnes Givens was guardian to both of these women. Thus, James Wilson and Charles Ramsey were bro. in law. Any consideration is greatly appreciated. Thanks Dee Wilson-Swain

Nadine, Please see if you can find a marriage record for Laura Wilson and Jim Hopkins. I'm not sure of the date of the marriage, but Laura was born in TN ca. 1857. Thanks, Jim Ackerman

My sister was looking up tartans the other day for one of her kids. We are Sutherlands also. There is the Sutherland dress, Sutherland ancient, and I think the default is the Black Watch.

Thanks so much for sending us this link, Janice. I had a lot of fun looking at all the variations of Wilson and MacNeil and got a better appreciation of our Wilsons of Bannockburn (possible) weaver ancestors. As I wrote to Don at greater length, I don't think we can conclusively decide whether our own Wilson ancestors are connected to the Gunn Clan (or to either of the other two septs shown on the Tartans of Scotland web site - Boyd and Innes) until we have been able to trace our own lines back to the areas in which they lived. Dr. Philip Smith in his Tartan for Me! doesn't include Boyd as a Wilson connection. His recommendation is that a person can safely decide to wear the modern or ancient colors of the family's tartan, in our case Wilson. If the search for the place of the family's origins in Scotland ever proves successful, then the further decision can be made whether or not one wishes to align oneself with the ruling clan in that area of which their Wilsons would have been a sept. I hope that this is helpful to someone.
