General Notes: Husband - Hugh Mitchell Wilson

---

The Wilson family was one of the earliest settled in Washington County, Pennsylvania. They were from Frank-lin and Adams counties.

For a time he was a merchant at Elizabeth, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, then farmed, and later owned and operated a grist and saw mill until 1834, when he sold out. In March, 1835, he removed from his native county to Armstrong County, where he purchased land, finally acquiring ownership of over six hundred acres.
