Wilsons, Robertson Co., early 19th century

I have been told that my 3rd gt.grandfather, Ephraim Wilson, moved from E. TN to Robertson Co. before he died. I don't know when, but I do know he was still in Greene Co., TN, in 1805. Ephraim was born in Augusta Co., VA, circa 1740. He married Isabella Hutcheson in Augusta Co. in 1759. He was named in Greene Co., TN, tax lists in 1783 and 1805. I've lost track of him after that and cannot find him in a census (could be because of the loss of early E TN censuses). I was hoping to find him in a Robertson Co. census, but did not. His sons were Richard (died Catoosa Co., GA); John (don't know deathplace); Ephraim G. (don't know deathplace); Samuel (died in Jackson Co., TN).

I was at the McClung Collection in Knoxville yesterday, hoping to look at Robertson Co. deed books, marriage records, etc., on microfilm. I didn't stop to think that McClung's microfilm collection covers only E TN counties, and Robertson is in Middle TN. I did go through all the Robertson Co. books they had (a lot, actually) and did not find information on him.

If anyone can give me information on Ephraim, I would be very grateful.
