What's New as of 28 Dec 2012
- Generation 6 has finally been added!
- Generation 6 includes the 3rd great-grandchildren of Alexander and Jane (Armour) Wilson.
- There are many members of Generation 6 who are still living, or who are not known to have died. These individuals are not shown on this website, in keeping with our policy of not identifying living individuals. Such individuals are identified on their parents' main pages in Generation 5 simply as "Living," and there is no link to them and no information is given in Generation 6.
- The release of the 1940 census in 2012 provided a great deal of information on members of Generation 6. Adding this information accounted for much of the delay in posting Generation 6.
- However, there is still a lot of missing information. In many cases, Generation 6 includes our parents and grandparents. Your help in filling out the information on this, as well as older, generations will be much appreciated.
- Collateral Family information is not included in this version of the website.
- Verifying links and ensuring that all individuals referenced were actually included on the website proved to be too time-consuming to be completed in anything like a timely fashion.
- Collateral Family information will be added back as soon as possible.
- Generations 1-5 have been updated again.
- It seems the more information you have, the more you receive. Since the last update on 11 May 2012, we have received much more information about members of the first 5 generations. Adding this information has been a top priority.
- The release of the 1940 census in 2012 provided much information that needed to be incorporated into the first 5 generations. Although an extensive amount of information has been added, more will continue to be added as it is found, or shared by family members.
- An Index by Wilson Family has been added.
- This Index lists the descendants of each Wilson family member.
- The Wilson Family Genealogy Submission Form has been amended to show that, at the present time, it must be filled out manually and submitted by either regular mail or email.

- Generations 1 through 5 of the Wilson Family Genealogy have been updated.
- Information on individuals has been corrected and expanded based both on feedback from family members and friends and on additional research.
- Please continue to contact us with corrections and additions to this information.
- More pictures have been added.
- There are, however, still many family members for whom we need pictures. Please consider sharing photographs you may have of family members. Even if the photograph is in poor condition, we can generally do a lot to clean it up. And remember that even a poor picture is better than none at all.
- Links are now provided to each individual's memorial on www.findagrave.com.
- We have worked with the volunteer contributors to the findagrave site to ensure that as many Wilson memorials as possible include photographs of the individual's headstone and/or monument.
- Memorials are also included for Wilson family members for whom we are lacking burial information. If you find a Wilson family member without a burial location, and you know where that individual is buried, please contact us with that information.
- As far as we know, all Wilson family memorials on the findagrave site are linked together, so that, starting on that site with any Wilson family member, you can find the rest of the family.
- Information on individuals has been corrected and expanded based both on feedback from family members and friends and on additional research.
- Generation 6 of the Wilson Family Genealogy, which was present on the last incarnation, is not present on this one.
