1850 CENSUS
Nothing is known of Wilson / Hilson's first wife / lover. In 1850, Wilson and his 3 daughters (but no mother) were together. Here is a record of Hilson

Oxendine, Hilson TN Jackson County 9th Civil District 1850 885 185

In this 1850 record, "Hilson" Oxendine is a mulatto blacksmith who cannot read or write. He is 40, born in 1810. The female in the house is Nancy Burton, 24, maybe from SC? Three female children are Alsey aged 14 (1835), Margaret aged 9 (1841), and Julia aged 5 (1845). All kids were born in Tennessee. It seems unlikely that Nancy is all of the kids' mom as she would be aged 10 when Alsey was born.

1860 Census
In 1860, Wilson, was off with a new family in Kentucky. The 4 Oxendine daughters were each off in new separate households. Below is Margaret, now 18. She is actually living with older sister Ailsey and her husband, James Walker. They are listed as being farmers. Note that Margaret is again tagged with a "M" as in Mulatto, meaning colored/mixed race.

William Hunter (brother of JD hunter, who married Elizabeth Oxendine) completed the family connection by himself marrying Margaret Oxendine. The two had 5 kids - John, Elisha, Belle, George, Ed. More about William Hunter and his brother JD.
