  On Saturday May 17, 2008 the family of William Roy Wilson, descendant of David Willson, Ireland held their annual reunion at the home of daughter Kathy Sherlin.  There were 58 family members present.  Also celebrated on this day was the 80th birthday of Anna Leona Benton Wilson wife of William Roy Wilson.

Also given were books compiled with all documents and proof of lineage from Issac Wilson and son Issac Wilson Jr. who were pioneers and first families of Tennessee having settled in the Wautaga region of North Eastern Tennessee before Statehood.
