Biography
John was born about 1717, and died on 3 Aug 1810. [1]
Notes
Marriage to Hannah Cooper is reported in numerous online trees, but only source available appears to be a 1789 record in Warwickshire, England. [2] It seems unlikely that this record has anything to do with John Wilson whose children were born in the 1740's and 1750's and who settled in Co. Wicklow; further evidence is sought to confirm his wife's name as Hannah Cooper.
