Phyllis, I would like to add to your Wilsons if John Henderson Wilson b. 1887 Des Arc, Union Co. Mo. has any connection.

Let's pursue a possible connection. Do you know where John Henderson's parents came from? Can you go back farther than John Henderson? Do you know where the name Henderson came from? I've thought maybe it was Thomas Henderson's mother's maiden name, but that's just a guess. Here's three generations beginning with Thomas Henderson Wilson.
