Samuel Wilson - is in Fayette County Kentucky in 1785 when he signs
a petition for Bourbon County to be formed from Fayette County. He is then listed
on a 1788 tax list for Fayette County, Kentucky. He is in
Bourbon County, Kentucky in
the 1790 census. Samuel is still in Bourbon County in 1794 as he is listed as the executor
to the estate of Wm. McClure. 1800 tax list (considered "2nd" census) for
Bourbon County has a Samuel Wilson Sr. & Samuel Wilson Jr.
Samuel appears in Jefferson County, Missouri in 1801 - ".......settled on Little
Rock creek, another branch of the Maramec, the early actual settlers were all Americans,
thus we find Samuel Wilson and his son John (1801); John Henderson (1802); John
Gillmore (1803); George Smirl, senior, (1801); James Smirl (1802); and George, junior, in
the St. Louis District of what is now Jefferson County, Missouri" (from
"History of Missouri", pg. 76, by Louis Houck).
There was a Samuel Wilson who served in the War of 1812 under Capt. John
Hughes (Washington Co., Mo.) Mustered into service on the 9th of Sept.
1812 & our on the 25th Oct.
Samuel died before 1841.

From: Beth Wilson At least one of John Wilson's grandchildren says on the census that her
father was born in Kentucky. A Bartholomew Herrington signed petition #28
in 1785 that resulted in Bourbon County, Kentucky being formed from
Fayette County. As I mentioned before many think that John Wilson's wife Mary was the
daughter of Bartholomew. On the same petition was a Samuel Wilson.
Bartholomew helped to lay out roads in Campbell County,Kentucky in 1796 and was in court
records there through 1799. The Smirls may have been in the same areas. Bartholomew may
have been in Westmoreland County, PA in 1783 on a tax list and I think
there were Wilsons there also. A Bartholomew Hetherington was in the Rev.
War from Westmoreland County, PA.
