Hi Dave,
...
I wanted to provide you with more information on my maternal grandmother's side. She was born a Bodine and was always very interested in our family history. I was going through some boxes recently and found a copy of the following which my grandmother gave to me several years ago:
From:
HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD OF WASHINGTON COUNTY MARYLAND
pages 1186 to 1190
Excerpt:
Dr. Henry Beatty Wilson and Ellen (Kennedy) Wilson had twelve children, two of whom died in infancy. The others are:
1. Scott Kennedy Wilson, M.D.,
2. Henry Beatty Wilson, Jr.
3. Catherine Rebecca Wilson
4. Walter D. Wilson
5. John A. Wilson
6. Mary Louisa Wilson*
7. George Rochester Wilson
8. Edith Jennings Wilson
9. Agnes Virginia O.
10. Joseph Coit
There is more very interesting and detailed information (and a photo of Dr. Wilson) from this book that I'd be happy to provide if you'd like. Perhaps I can scan or transcribe it for you to put into the Notes. Let me know your thoughts.
