I don't know where you do your research, but nothing you have written is supported by the documents which are available to anyone interested enough in the TRUTH to search them out.
You need to find a new hobby.
Zacheus Wilson, son of Robert and Eleanor Wilson married Mary Russell, not a widow named Elizabeth Conger Nichols.Elizabeth Conger Nichols was not widowed until her husband, Joseph Nichols died in Rutherford County, Tennessee in 1826, documented by Will records and Revolutionary War Pension Application.
Elizabeth Conger ROSS was widowed about 1767, documented by the Will record of her husband, Nicholson Ross and the Estate Records in Mecklenburg Co. NC.She is the one who married the Surveyor, Zacheus Wilson (d. 1824) who was the brother of Major David Wilson (d. 1803.) Also, documented by the letters written to Lyman Draper by the grandson of Elizabeth Conger and husband Nicholson Ross, who was named for this grandfather, the grandson being the Rev. Nicholson Ross Morgan (Presbyterian Church Minute documents verify this name}. Lyman Draper was doing his research on the signers of the Mecklenburg Declaration and the Zacheus Wilson which he writes about as having married the widow was the Zacheus Wilson who was the signer.These events happened when Robert and Eleanor's son, Zacheus, was just a child, so there is no way this story of the widow and the surveyor could have ever applied to him.
Do you just totally ignore Official County and State Documented records?Or maybe you don't take the time to really dig and search for such records.Too bad that you aren't interested in the real facts.
Your story that Zacheus Wilson, son of Robert and Eleanor Wilson then traveled 400 miles to Berkley Co., VA (now WV) to marry Susan Chenoweth in 1797 is pathetic.There are numerous documented records of the family of ZACHARIAH Wilson and the Chenoweth family connection. Of course, as usual, you didn't bother to follow up on that, you just found a marriage and changed the man's name and worked it into your so-called history.
You read some old histories in North Carolina, and in some cases decided those writers were in error and contrived a complete false history of this family.
You admitted in your early postings about two years ago that you had started your research of the Wilson family knowing absolutely nothing about them and at that time you had only been doing the research for about two years, so that means you have researched this family for about four years, in spite of the fact that in a recent posting you claimed you had been researching them for about 12 years.
That fact alone shows you are not truthful, so why should anyone think your story about this family is correct when it is being continually contradicted by persons who are related to this family and have done the research for as long as 30 or more years, and have worked in conjunction with other researchers of this line to arrive at as accurate a history as possible.
I hope no one is foolish enough to purchase your latest book, because if they are not knowledgeable about the documented facts of this family, it will only serve to confuse them.
