Nicole, My Wilsons first show up in Morgan Co, OH census in 1840, but the two brothers had been around since the 20's. However, there are some interesting similarities in names. Of course, when researching Wilsons. . . . Also, I have Wilsons very close to section 89 at Greenlawn in Columbus and I've already found other family members in there as well. Probably just a coincidence, but when I go to the library this week, I'll do a little comparing. As far as the Indian goes, I was taught a list of family nationalities as a child. I'm still looking for the Indian and the Welsh. Since neither are on my mother's side, they must be on my father's side. I know it's not my paternal grandmother's line, so that narrows it down to some branch off of one of the Wilson lines in my paternal grandfather's side (both his parents were Wilsons from different lines). Thanks for the lead! I'll be in touch. Sandy Wilson Barton Wilson-Boyer-Fink-Timmons-Jemison Barton-Camink(Kemink)-Forshey-Athey

Dear Sandy, I am descended from William Wilson and his wife, Margaret (McGrew) Wilson of Guffery, Sewickley Twp. (On Youghigheny River)Westmoreland Co., PA. I am including some of their descendants with this post. There is Indian ancestry (Shawnee) in this branch of the family but I have not been able to determine whether it is in the Wilson line or the families of McDonald/Reed/Brown/McGrew/Watson/ Dutton or Hutton/Wiley with whom they intermarried in Westmoreland Co.,PA. These families moved together to Morgan Co., OH circa 1860. Is your suspected Indian ancestry in the Wilson line? Which tribe? When? Hope we can help each other.

This message leaves the mistaken impression that I am a descendant of Ann Walker and John Burns. My WALKER line is through Betsy Walker. I have no indication of Cherokee ancestry in a Wilson line.

Anna If you go to www.familysearch.org the 1880 census index is availlable. There are only 4 or 5 Wilson families in Madison County. (Including a Wm born 1859, wife Lucy, dau Alma ). If you take the names of those heads of household appearing, and look for them in the 1860/1870 census, you might get lucky. Of course, they might not necessarily have lived in Madison Co for those 30 years, but you never know. Can you get a marriage certificate or bond for William?

The 1880 Census is listed and there is a James Wilson (age 41) living right next door to your William Wilson in Madison County, Kentucky. Also living with James is a William Wilson (65 years old) listed as "father" and a Charles (age 24) listed as "brother" to James. These families are listed right next to each other so they are probably father and sons. Or at least I think it's your William Trenton Wilson. Glinda

Phyllis, I'm not a descendant of that line, although there may well be a connection. My line is through Betsy Walker, said to be full-blooded Cherokee. Her daughter Elizabeth married Edward "Ned" Leatherwood, and they had a daughter who married my 4gr-grandfather Benjamin Hyde. His son John Aaron Hyde was born in what was then Burke County (probably now McDowell) and settled in Swain County where he farmed and raised his second family which included my gr-gr-grandfather Samuel Hyde. A member of the Leatherwood list is presently (I think) in Swain County researching Betsy Walker, attempting to prove her Cherokee descent and find out more about her family. I have a volume The Heritage of Swain County NC, published in 1987 that contains several articles concerning the Leatherwoods. I'm not directly connected to them but they are interesting. There are also articles about the Hydes and their descendants, writtten mostly by my sister. It sounds like there is a connection somewhere, surely.
