Collateral Family Service Men and Women

Not Complete

Thanking Those Collateral Family Members Who Served in the Armed Forces and the Civilian Uniformed Services

A star (*) after an individual's name indicates that the individual is known to have been wounded in action.
Two stars (**) indicates that the individual is known to have died as a result of his/her service.
Because information on military and/or civilian uniformed service is not known for all Collateral Family Members, many people are missing from this list. It is also possible that some Collateral Family members were wounded in action or died as a result of their service and we do not have that information. If you know a Collateral Family Member who was in the Armed Forces or civilian uniformed services, or who was wounded or killed as a result of their service, and that person and/or information is not shown here, please let us know.
It is also possible that some of these people are ancestors of individuals who married into the Wilson Family, but we are presently unaware of those additional relationships. If you know other Wilson Family members who should be shown as having a relationship to any of the people listed here, please let us know.
