BROWNING in Palestine. Samuel was b. c1821 in Harrison Co OH. and d.1862 in Crawford Co. He left $100, a cow, and a bed
each to Minerva and Maria Wilson in his estate. A man named George DICKINSON, wife Rachel, was appointed guardian of
Maria and Minerva WILSON when John WILSON died. This same man (apparently some relation to Julia Ann (DICKINSON) (BROWNING)

would gift Minerva and Maria such expensive items...it's not stated in the papers. Relation? If anyone is related to
this WILSON family, I would love to know.
