Mary Palsgrove and John Wilson-Pendleton and Franklin Co's, KY
In providing this WILSON sketch, I am trying to document a relationship
among two groups of Wilson families from the north-central Kentucky
vicinity, all with ties to Pennsylvania. The first grouping includes
Thomas and Abigail Points Wilson; Robert and Rachel Jump Wilson,
"Indian Jack" John Wilson Jr. and companion (but not wife) Abigail Points,
Ralph and Mary Points Wilson, and a second John Wilson, wife not proven
but perhaps Mary Palsgrove. Thomas/Abigail and John/Mary eventually
removed to Lee County, Iowa and northeast Missouri. "Indian Jack" and
Ralph Wilson and Robert Wilson's descendants removed to west-central
Illinois and later on westward.
The second "grouping" of WILSON's who often times show up in the same
localities and intermarry with member of the "first grouping" above are
the descendants of David and Martha Wilson, he dying in Harrison County,
Kentucky in 1821 leaving a will. At least six of their children or
descendants "show up" in either northeast Missouri or west-central
Illinois and in some cases both: James and Bridget Custer Wilson; William
and Elizabeth Wilson Custer; Samuel and Nancy Wilson Hinkson; John and
Salley Anderson Wilson; Ralph and Patsy Wilson Wilson; and William and
Deborah Custer Wilson.
