William S. Wilson (M)
b. circa 1824, d. after 11 June 1990, #361
Pop-up Pedigree
Relationship=Great-grandfather of Joe Frierson Grant.

     The 1850 census of Pontotoc County Mississippi list William Wilson as head of household with Telitha E. age six and Nancy age three months along with Hugh Wilson, Nancy Wilson age twenty three (probably the wife of Hugh), Mary age thirty, and Nancy Wilson age seventy.
The will of Nancy Wilson dated 14 September, 1857 proves her to be the mother of William S. and Hugh C. Wilson. There is some question as to Nancy's age. If she was 70 in 1850 that would have made her 44 at the birth of William and 46 at the birth of Hugh.
A marriage license was issued to William S. Wilson in Marshall County Tennessee, as recorded in roll 22 Volume 1 Marshall County Marriages on 4 January, 1844. This is possibly the daughter of James Williams as listed on page 29 of Sesquicentennial History of Marshall Co. Tennessee. I believe that this is the first marriage of My William S. Wilson and the Mother of Telitha E. Wilson and her sister Nancy Ellen. He was born circa 1824 at Tennessee.1 William S. Wilson was the son of Zaccheus Wilson and Nancy Long. He married Nancy Williams, daughter of James Williams and Sarah Allison, on 4 January 1844 at Marshall County, Tennessee.2 In the Census of 1850, William was listed as a head of household at Chesterville, Pontotoc County, Mississippi.1 He married Martha A. Gill, daughter of Samuel Curry Gill and Susan Ewing, on 29 July 1855 at Pontotoc County, Mississippi.3 William was listed as the head of a family on the 1860 Census at Chesterfield, Lee County, Mississippi. He appeared on the 1870 Federal Census of Chesterfield, Lee County, Mississippi, enumerated circa July 1870,W. S. Wilson 45, M.4 William was listed as the head of a family on the 1880 Census at Dallas County, Texas.
