General Notes: Husband - Hiram H. Wilson


He was reared on the soil, and his principal employment from the age of twelve to that of twenty, was driving oxen for farm labor. His school privileges were consequently very meagre.
His occupation was that of a farmer, with the exception that from 1864 to 1868 he was engaged in the manufacture of brick. Both he and his wife were members of the Neshannock Presbyterian Church.
