Research questions:
WHERE THERE OTHER LINKS BETWEEN THIS WILSON AND THE WIVES OF JOHN HILL, JOHN ANDERSON, AND HENRY MOON ALL IN OUR FAMILY?
WHO WERE JAMES, SR’S ANCESTORS?
DID HE SETTLE FIRST IN MARSH CREEK?
HOW DID HE ACCUMULATE WHAT APPEARS TO BE A LARGE ESTATE?
Newly discovered resources:
GOOGLE “JAMES WILSON 1704“

Speculation:
OUR JAMES WILSON, SR., WAS AMONG THE FIRST SETTLERS TO CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA, AND THUS WAS ABLE TO ACCUMULATE LAND AND ASSETS THROUGH HARD WORK. SLAVERY WAS A COMMON PRACTICE THERE AND THEN.
