General Notes: Husband - Hugh Reed Wilson

---

Hanlin, Washington Co, PA

He attended the common schools, then hired out to R. S. Cook, living near Bulger, Washington County, Pennsylvania, with whom he remained some time. He married, and they remained for some time as tenants on his father-in-law's farm. In 1880 he located on a place in Hanover township, upon which he made many improvements, successfully devoting his attention to general farming, stock raising and dairying. Politically he always voted the Democrat ticket, and in religion he and his wife were members of the Florence Presbyterian Church.
