Description
Christopher Wilson and his son, Christopher Wilson, came to Sheridan in 1829. The father left for London, Ontario but the son and his wife, Elizabeth (Clark) had two sons who also farmed in the area; John on the Town Line and Richard on the homestead at Sheridan. They were related to the Clark family, also of the area, through Elizabeth (Clark) Wilson. In 1929, a Clark-Wilson family reunion at the residence of W. Alfred Wilson celebrated the 1829 settling of Christopher and Elizabeth on their Sheridan farm. A photograph of this gathering is also posted on this website.

Victor was the grandson of Richard.
