Mrs. Wilson Regrets
That She Can’t Work
(Continued From Page 1)
been dead for six years. The last year
of his life, the Wilsons celebrated their
62nd wedding anniversary at the Hoo-
ver home in Dallas. Today, Mrs, Wil-
son has 108 living descendants. There
are 11 children, 42 grandchildren, 54
great grandchildren, and one great
great grandchild, the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Charles Wendlin of Lakewood,
N.iJ. 3
Most of the original children live in
this locality, with the exception of a
brother in Berwick, and a sister at
Lakewood.
Mrs. Wilson was born Dec, 7, 1851,
in Pittston, in the same house in which
her mother had been born. The
daughter of Jude L. and Rachel Jen-
kins Vandenburg, she moved to Dal-
las when she was 5 years old, Her
future husband was the son of Peter
and Jane Emmons Wilson, and was
born: in Dallas April 28, 1849, The
Wilsons were married 69 years ago
next Christmas,
They continued to live in Dallas un-
til the present Mrs. Hoover had been
born, and then they began their travels
about the county.
Since Mr. Wilson was a sawyer, the
family found it necessary to move to
wherever there was a logging opera-
tion, “Most of the time, we didn’t even
have a decent house to move into,”
Mrs. Wilson recalled. “Usually we
had to live in a broken down old
shack, IT would repair it, and with the
help of the children clean up the clear-
ing around it. And then, just as we
had begun to get the house so it seem-
ed clean enough to live in, the logging
would end and we'd have to move a-
gain. I got so tired of moving that I
used to pray we would all grow roots,
and never be able to move a step a-
gain.”
Reunion of the Wilson descendants
is usually held in conjunction with the
annual reunion of old settlers at Stull,
Maintained for the last eight years,
the reunion takes place the first Sun-
day in August,
The meeting at Stull this year was
was held Sunday, August 7. It was
attended by Mr. and Mrs. Wesley
Hoover and "Andrew Wilson and his
wife, of Luzerne,
