General Notes: Husband - William L. Wilson

---

He attended the public schools, receiving a thor­ough training in the common branches. Though he selected agriculture as his life work, yet he be­lieved education to be essential to any department of life. In 1888 or 1889 he bought the residence of the Rev. J. T. Frederick, in Burgettstown, PA, and the following spring moved to town. He was un­married, his two sisters, Sarah and Isabell, living with him. One evening, while returning from the farm to his home in town, he had to cross the railroad track. A freight train was just moving off the crossing, and at that moment he stepped on to cross over, when he was struck by the limited express and instantly killed. He could not see the express for the freight train. In religious matters he was a United Presbyterian. In politics he was a Republican.
