I’m trying to finish my Dads book on the family while he can see it. He is 98.6.
My Wilsons are descended from the Norse Wulfings Clan: son of Wolf. Beowulf was composed at our clan home. At the end of the Viking Age, we went to Scotland and mainly to Ireland. William sailed here on the James and Mary, and the family moved through the Carolinas, Kentucky, Arkansas, and settled in Indian Territory. Somewhere along the way we picked up considerable Lenape Indian DNA. Our family book is : Those Wilsons on the Rollin Fork.
