Children

General Notes: Husband - George N. Wilson


He grew to manhood on the family farm and attended the local schools. He was only eleven years old when he lost his father, but the family continued to live on the farm, which had been purchased by his father in 1863. It was a fertile tract of 100 acres, which was improved with substantial buildings and had been carefully and suc­cessfully cultivated.
Following the family traditions, Mr. Wil­son was a stanch adherent of the Democratic party and on its ticket was elected to local office at various times and in the fall of 1905 was elected county auditor, a re­sponsible office that he filled for three years. He also served as township supervisor and on the board of elections, and was twice elected justice of the peace for Jackson Township. He was a member of the United Presbyterian Church.
