JAMES WILSON was one of the foremost men in Derry Twp. His farm near New Derry contained about 800 acres, and is now a very valuable piece of land. He lived on this farm until 1820, the year in which he died. In appearance he was a typical pioneer, over six feet tall, and very straight and active. His remains and those of his wife and a married daughter, a MRS. KNOTT, are buried on the farm near their home.
