Wilson Family.-- Charles Wilson came to North Carolina from Pennsylvania about the time of the Revolutionary War. His wife is said to have been a sister of Gen. Nathaniel Greene, of Rhode Island. Charles was in General Greene's army and was killed at Guilford. Hiram Wilson married a Miss Smith and they settled on Cove Creek about 1815. Their children were John, who married Mary Mast; Lucretia, who married Isaac Wilson, a distant kinsman; Sarah, who married Dudley Farthing; Isaac, who married Miss Caroline Greer; Ellen, who married Reuben Farthing; Albert P., who was born April 14, 1826, and married Elizabeth Councill, a daughter of Jesse: Clarissa, who married George Younce; Hiram, who married Alex. Baird, and Wm. Carroll, who married a Miss Adams, a daughter of Alfred Adams. Hiram, Isaac and Carroll were killed in the Civil War, and Albert P. was wounded twice, John having died just prior to the Civil War.
Another Wilson Family.-- A.J. Wilson was the head of this family, and it is said that he "came over in the Mayflower." Isaac Wilson, a son of A.J. Wilson, is said to have been killed at Lexington, N.C., in the Revolutionary War. His children

were: Boyd, Isaac, John and Hiram. Boyd went to Middle Tennessee; Isaac settled at Sutherland and was killed by a tree falling on him; John married and lived on Sawyer's Creek, as did Hiram, who lived lower down that creek. Hiram's children were: John, Crissy, Sarah, Albert, Clarissa, Hiram and Carroll. John's children were: Betsy, Hannah and Susan, William, Alexander and John. This family of Wilson's came about 1817, when John Wilson, who was born in 1815, was two years old.
Lemuel, John and Hiram Wilson came from Rowan and Lemuel settled at Sutherland and John and Hiram near John Mast's present home.
Lemuel Wilson liven near the Tnnnessee line and near the dividing line between Watauga and Ashe. His children were: Andrew, who is yet living in that neighborhood, and Alexander, who was in the Civil War. Lemuel had two daughters, one of whom married Alfred and the other joseph Thomas, sons of William Thomas, of that section. Rev. Leonard C. Wilson, of Beaver Dams, is a son of Lemuel Wilson and grandson of Lemuel Wilson. William Thomas was a school teacher on Sharp's Creek, just below T. P. Adam's present home. He had a number of rules, among which was one that no scholar should nickname another scholar, but this rule did not apply to the pedagogue himself. He nicknamed T. P. Adams when he was six years old because he said he reminded him of pictures of President John Tyler. This nicknamne clung till T. P. was grown.
Isaac Wilson, son of hiram , known as Little Isaac, was "bushwhacked" during the Civil War and killed. His son, Rev. W.A. Wilson, a missionary of the M.E. Church, South, has been stationed at Huoshima, japan, a number of years.
