I am trying to locate information on my Wilson lineage. My G-G-Grandfather, was either William Thomas Wilson or Thomas Franklin Wilson and moved to Perry from Catawba County, North Carolina after the Civil War. I recently received a copy of an old letter that indicated he committed suicide after losing a second fortune. The year was about 1874. His son, William Thomas Franklin Wilson was my Grandfather, William Albert Wilson's father. I understand there was a fire in the courthouse so there are no birth records available. If anyone has any information on my Wilson lineage, please contact me.
