- Description
- The Reverend W. A. Wilson was the first minister of the Knox Presbyterian Church in St. Marys, called in 1878 when the congregation had just formed, even before the church building was opened in 1880. On Christmas Day, 1879, he married Margaret Caven, daughter of the Reverend William Caven, principal of Knox College, Toronto and an early minister of the Presbyterian congregations in St. Marys and Avonbank, 1852-1866. The Wilsons left St. Marys in 1884 to do missionary work in India. This portrait photograph shows W. A. Wilson as an older man, possibly home on furlough.
