Jim, I know very little about this Wilson line, except that it contains two Elihus, one born about 1806 in MD, and his grandson, Elihu Abraham, born 1859, in Mason County, IL., so I don't know whether it was a family name prior to 1806. The difference in location between your Elihu and mine would suggest there is no connection, at least not yet.

I have not seen the name other than in connection with the Wilson Family I have an Elihu C.Wilson born 6 SEP 1870 in Wisconsin. His father is James Wilson, born 12 MAR 1817 in New York.
