Wilson was born in McMinn Co., TN, Dec. 12, 1825, and is a son of Hugh P. and Nancy (Culton) Wilson, who were also born in TN, the former in Blount Co. in 1800. He was a son of David Wilson and was of Scotch-Irish descent. He died in Meigs Co. in 1848, aged about 75 years. Hugh P. was his third child. He resides in McMinn Co., and he and wife became the parents of ten children, six now living; Francis M. (who died of smallpox while serving in the US Army, East TN 12th Cavalry), James M., David A., Wilburn H., John (who died in Barry Co. in 1884), Jane (Burke), Nancy (Prickett), Mary (Gregory), Margaret (Underdonn); she died leaving a family of five children), and Patrick (who died in TN just before the war). The mother of these children died in 1873, and the father took for his second wife Betsey Sloup. David A. Wilson, the immediate subject of this biography, grew to maturity in TN, where he received such educational advantages as the county afforded. He came to MO in the fall of 1852, and located in Barry Co. From 1856 to 1859 he resided in Lawrence Co., and then returned and located on his present farm. During the war he first enlisted in the enrolled Militia, and was elected second lieutenant, but at the end of two years resigned and returned home on account of ill health. After he reached home he resumed agricultural pursuits, and soon after was elected judge of the county court, and was chosen presiding judge. He was married in 1846 to Amanda Burk, who was born in McMinn Co., TN, and their union resulted in the birth of ten children, seven now living. William C., the eldest, joined the army when he was about seventeen years old, and served six months; he died in 1876, being a graduate of a St. Louis medical college. Pope H. died in 1883. Alexander P. died at the age of seven years, during the war. Those living are Harrison H., Timothy S., James R., Mary J. (Hilton), Elizabeth (Ellis), Sarah (Hubbard), and Minnie (Williams).

Ebb was 33 years old and has been suffering from pulmonary tuberculosis for some time and has been confined to his bed for the past three months and realized it was impossible for him to recover, however he had never intimated to his father or any one else that he intended killing himself. He had an unusually bad day Friday, being seized with spells of coughing at frequent intervals, which would leave him so nearly exhausted that he could not wait on himself, so his father had stayed with him till late in the afternoon when he, the father, left the house leaving a small son to attend to Ebb's wants. When the father had gone, Ebb got up and went to his trunk and took his pistol out and secreted it about the bed, leaving the impression with the little fellow that he was taking a letter from the trunk. When supper was ready, his father, as usual, asked him what he would have brought in for his supper, but the son refused to eat anything saying he would rest and for the family to go on with their meal. They had hardly got seated at the table when the fatal shot was fired. The pistol had been held against the head behind the left ear and death was instantaneous. Besides a father, deceased leaves two brothers two sisters and a half brother. Interment was made in the family plot at Osa, April 14. - Grave #556. - Photo of Ebb | Photo Note Larry Wilson Death Certificate Stefanie Forester Census Online Obit Phyllis Long |

Research Note: According to the death certificate of Henrietta C. Warner, she was a daughter of Henry Warner, born Germany and Unknown, born England. The cause of death was from chronic bronchitis. She was a widowed housekeeper. Informant: Mrs. Amelia Burk, Monett, MO. - Researchers give a different story for Henrietta. Her husband was Heinrich "Henry" Wissman. He owned a mill south of Verona and later moved to Elm Springs, south of Marionville near Crane. He is buried in the Spring River Cemetery, Lawrence County, Missouri, just south of Verona. His tombstone reads F. W. Henry (Fredrick Henrick William) Wissmann. Henrietta was the daughter of Johann Heinrich Wilhelm Strangmeier and Maria Henrietta Graeve. She first married Frederic W. Storek on June 17, 1869 in St. Louis, MO. Second married Henry Wissman on Oct. 3, 1871 in St. Louis, MO. (No idea why her father was named as Warner.) She left Germany because of a mean step-mother to be a maid in St. Louis. Marcella Esterly tells a story handed down through generations about Henrietta. Apparently her mother died while she was young and her father then married an English woman who had a daughter. Henrietta supposedly came to this country to get away from her English step-mother with whom she did not get along. When Henrietta was packing her trunk prior to leaving Germany, she packed a locket. When she got here it was gone. Years later she received a picture of the family in Germany. Around the step-sister's neck was the missing locket. - 1880 Census, Pierce, Stone, Missouri - Etta Wissman, age 31; Amelia age 6; Louiza age 4; Henrietta age 2; Clara age 8 months born in Aug. - Grave #57. | Census MO Marriage Records Phyllis Long Photo Death Certificate Stefanie Forester |
