Betty,   Your note at the bottom about mystery Wilson's is funny. I am a Sutherland, also with DNA of Sinclair. My mom was a Wilson, my dad was Sutherland. I have not found out yet which Sinclair line I'm in. Waiting on more info.   Janice Sutherland California ----- Original Message ----- From: "Betty Putnam" <bwadeputnam@fairpoint.net> To: wilson@rootsweb.com Sent: Tuesday, July 8, 2014 4:49:00 AM Subject: [WILSON] My Wilson lineage I see we are having a lot of discussion about DNA and in general, our Wilson families.  Maybe this will help someone out there that shares my Wilson line. My grandmother, Bertha Maude Wilson 1893-1958 Russell Co., KY was the daughter of Silas Huston Wilson 1861-1935 Russell Co., KY & Nancy Paul. Silas Huston Wilson was the son of Josiah E. Wilson 1827-1901 Kentucky & Sarah McQueary.  Josiah was the son of Moses Harkness Wilson 1807-1862 Russell Co., KY & Malissa Hopper.  Moses Harkness Wilson was the son of Nathaniel Wilson, Sr. 1773 Henry Co., VA-1848 Adair Co., KY & Susannah Stephens.  Nathaniel Wilson, Sr. was the son of Moses Wilson abt 1742 Henry Co., VA-1830 Russell Co., KY & Elizabeth Bailey.  Moses Wilson was the son of James Wilson, Sr. 1703-1777 Henry Co., VA & Martha Cowarding.  James Wilson was the son of Robert Wilson 1650-1745 Augusta Virginia & Dinah Whitehead.  Robert Wilson was the son of John Wilson abt 1626 Scotland - bet 1657-1717 & Catherine UNK.  John Wilson was the son of William Wilson, Jr. 1600 Scotland-1663 Scotland & Margaret UNK.  William Wilson, Jr. was the son of William Wilson, Sr. abt 1575 Glasgow, Scotland - bet 1603-1663 probably Scotland & Elizabeth Yates. A Wilson cousin has done a DNA and has found we are among a "mystery" Wilson group.  His DNA shows that our Wilson's have a direct tie to the St. Clair/Sinclairs in Haddington, Scotland.  This is DNA R-P310.  He believes the Wilson's got started from a William St. Clair/Sinclair and became "Will's son" or Wilson.  He and his wife took at trip to Scotland last summer and they found the area or origin of the St. Clair/Sinclairs families. Maybe this is just another wrinkle in our Wilson families but since he and a Steve St. Clair have a match of DNA, a real possibility.  If you would like, you may contact me direct at bwadeputnam@fairpoint.net Betty Putnam ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to WILSON-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
