    Notes:

    Lemuel Wilson, the oldest of 2 sons born to Isaac Wilson Sr. [1774 - Unk.] and Margaret McCrary, [1775-Aft. 1830] It isn't known when either Isaac Sr or his wife Margaret died. She is listed in the Lexington area of Rowan Co, NC, next door to Isaac Jr, on 1820 census: 45 & up. In 1830 she is listed as 50-60, 2 houses away from Isaac (Jr) in Davidson Co, NC. An unrecorded will of Margaret's was found in her grandson's house, (John Lemuel, s/o Isaac Jr) in the 1940's by a great-great-granddaughter, Ida Finch. Margaret stated in her will she was a "relict of Isaac Wilson" and named her 2 sons, Lemuel and Isaac (Jr). A copy of the will was found in Mame McCubbins collections, in Davidson County Genealogical Society Library.
    Also a Rowan Co, NC marriage bond for Isaac Wilson Sr. and Margaret McCrary, dated 17 Sep 1795, bondsman was Peter Whitacre.
    Lemuel married (1) c1816, Rebecca Reece, d/o Jacob & Hannah (Silvers) Reece and they had eleven children, all named on Rebecca's gravesite memorial.
    Lemuel married (2) After 1860 census time,to Keziah Taylor, a widow, they had a daughter named Mary.
    Lemuel's father, Isaac (Sr) sold out and left Rowan Co, NC before 1810. It was reported by Rev. Wm. Albert Wilson, a son of Hiram Wilson of Watauga Co, NC, that Hiram's older brother, Isaac Sr., disappeared and married again in another state? As his brother Boyd Wilson, referred to as Boyd (Jr) also disappeared from Rowan in this same time frame, they could of been the two brothers that are listed on the 1812 Tax List of Giles Co, TN. A James McCallum wrote: "A Brief Sketch of Giles Co, TN.," pub. in 1876, pg 34 he wrote: "Hiram and Boyd Wilson, settled the lands over in the valley near Lynnville Station, and were there as early as 1809." Descendants of this Hiram I. Wilson, give his d.o.b. as c1770 in Ireland d. 28 Dec 1848 in Marshall Co, TN. Boyd Wilson, of Giles Co, descendants, give his d.o.b. as 25 Oct 1779 in Ireland, and d. 6 July 1850 in Giles Co, TN. Boyd Wilson was on the 1850 Mortality List of Giles Co, TN, by Bryon Sistler:
    Boyd Wilson,farmer, age 70, b. NC d. July 1850. Coincidence? Maybe? Actually as the Mortality records go from June to June, in 1850, Boyd would have died in July of 1849.
