A Wilson Family Tree

Notes for Samuel Wilson

There is a 1760 will of Samuel Wilson (Augusta County Will Book 2, pp. 355-356), in which he left his land (400 acres in the Borden Grant, in what is now Rockbridge County) to "cuzens" Thomas and Samuel Wilson. Samuel also named his brother Robert to be his executor. I'm not sure how strong this is, but Katherine Bushman thought that Samuel was our Robert's brother and the two "cuzens" were actually nephews -- Robert's sons.

Ronald Wilson's family tree on Ancestry.com (https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/173621658/person/222254606814/facts) has a lot of information about Samuel Wilson and his family and descendants. I can't help wondering, though, if it's the right Samuel Wilson.
