Does anyone have any information on this line? Contact

I'm interesting in learning more about the descendants/ancestors of James and Agnes WILSON ADAMS. Agnes WILSON was born about 1750 in Adams Co., Pennsylvania, died after 1815 in Hopkins Co., KY. She is the daughter of Matthew Wilson of Ireland and Catherine Hubbard. 1830 Tennessee's Wilsons

The concert to be given by Mrs. Tucker's music class on next Thursday night, June 24th, will be, judging from the programme, a most interesting and pleasing entertainment and those who fail to attend will certainly deprive themselves of a rare musical treat. The entertainment will consist of vocal and instrumental music, tableaux, a pantomime, and a cantata, and we feel safe in saying that the entire programme will be well rendered. The price of admission, for adults, is only 25 cents, and for children 15 cents. The proceeds of the concert will be appro- priated to a most worthy cause -- that of purchasing an organ for the Sunday school at this place. The concert will be given at the public school house. The young ladies should be greetedby a full house. The Democratic County Central Committee, at its meeting April 24, appointed the following committees in the several townships to hold the primary election August 7th, to wit:
White River - J. A. Flippin, W. H. Barnett and T. H. Poynter.

Continuing Mrs. Hasket went on to say that her father lived a while on Isaac Wilson’s mother’s farm on Crooked Creek two miles below Yellville. "If you remember" said she "Isaac Wilson kept a hotel In Yellville before the war. Mrs. Wilson was a well to do woman. Among her stock was several fine milk cows which kept fat on the cane in the creek bottoms. Mrs. Wilson allowed us to milk the cows and I well re-collect what a quantity of nice butter and cheese we made from the milk of these cows. Mrs. Wilson said that she had suffered a great deal from the depredations of wild beast before we went there. The old lady said that a few months before we went there a panther came into the yard one night and went up a persimmon tree that stood near the house. The tree had a bushy top and being in the fall of the year the limbs were loaded with possom fruit. The panther cut some awful diaoes while in the tree by screaming, growling and breaking off the limbs by its weight. Mrs. Wilson said that she and the other members of the family were bad scared. Finally the ferocious beast leaped out of the tree and went away. Next morning the ground under the persimmon tree was covered with persimmons that the panther had knocked off." S. C. Turnbo
The above was written in 1901.
Please note in the sketch that Fallen Ash Creek runs into White River on the opposite from Cotter or just above. The Flippin Barrens lies between White River and Yellville. The Flippin Graveyard is on the summit of a low wooded hill ¼ mile north east of the town of Flippin. This August 16, 1907.

The best evidence that Matthew Wilson and Catherine Hubbard's daughter married James Adams is found by court action in Deed Book A, page 151, Jan 14,1805, of Christian Co KY. It appoints James McGinley of Adams Co PA as Power of Attorney to collect all due James and Agnes Adams from the estate of Matthew Wilson of Adams Co PA, father of the said Agnes. Further confirmation that Daughter, Agnes, married James Adams is found in DAR records 502441 (4/18/64), 609995 (10/15/76), and 644353 (2/1/80). Also of interest to you, No. 056755 (5/4/06) record which is for Fannie Leonora Miller Vawter who comes down through Elizabeth Wilson and James Maginly. Our family records have not indicated that Matthew was a minister. I have seen a Matthew Wilson mentioned as a minister in the book: THE SCOTCH-IRISH OF COLONIAL PENNSYLVANIA, by W. F. Donaway but got the idea that he was older than our Matthew. Many descendants of James and Agnes are provided in the book: DESCENDANTS OF JAMES AND AGNES (WILSON) ADAMS WITH FIFTY-SEVEN ALLIED FAMILIES, Leona Adams Loviska. I would be interested in new follow-up information on Matthew Wilson and Catherine Hubbard. I also have more details than presented here. (Bob Adams )
