Both Max and I are wondering if any of Joseph's descendants are still living. Therefore if you know of Joseph or of Joseph's family, Max and I would both appreciate any information that you have to give. Max can be reached at mailto:max.matthews@pop.ntlworld.com. Alternatively, visit Max's Leicester Research web site.

I'd like to sincerely thank Max for sharing his research with me and the very interesting if rather tragic life of Joseph Wilson.

Just before Christmas I received a wonderful email from Tom Allen. Tom who lives in New York, is the Great Great Grandson of Joseph Wilson. Tom was delighted to come across the article and clarified some important points for us. It is with his kind permission that I am posting his email for you all to read. I'd like to thank Tom for taking the time to contact both Max and I and also for his very kind words. Read Tom's Email
