Mr. Wright-
You wrote-
"This was the property that they build the new Church on in Hawkins/Campbell County before Elizabeth Wilson Lea’s death in 1792 in Campbell County.
The William Wilson his son had property in the same area as laid out in Probate Records for (Sr.) handled by (Jr.) as well as a grandson, the son of (Zaacheus (Jr.) & Mary Russell Wilson son."
+ + + + + + The will of Zacheus Wilson dated 20 Oct 1795 never said anything about William Wilson having property in Orange County, NC or Campbell County, TN (as you wrote "laid out in probate records").
The only things mentioned in the will of Zacheus Wilson was his son William was to receive 5 shillings.There is no mentioned on Orange County, Caswell County, Hawkins County, Campbell or Grainger Counties TN in the settlement of Zacheus Wilson who died between Oct and December 1795 in Oglethorpe County, GA and who's estate was settled 1808 by his son, also named Zacheus Wilson.In the estate settlement of Zacheus Wilson who died 1795 in GA,William Wilson was simply a legatee.
