Keith,
In my previous post, I failed to note that there was a James Wilson, who was the sheriff of Greene Co., TN around 1790, and there was a Weir family in Greene Co.,There was a David Wilson who married Jenny Weir there, but he was not the son of Major David Wilson of Sumner County, TN.That James may be the one who Mr. Wright says died in Blount County in 1857, which may or may not be true, but if you know that your James was in Giles County, it would be very unlikely that he would have moved back over to the most eastern edge of the state.
