A Wilson Family Tree

Notes for Berenice Wilson



Her name is spelled Bernice in some records (1870 census, Ancestral File) and Berenice in others (1880 census, birth record in Missouri Pioneers).

I'm not sure the death date and place are correct. Her family had already moved to Colorado before this time. I wonder if she is being confused with another Berenice Wilson. The Missouri Secretary of State office has the death record on-line for a Bernice Wilson who died 14 Apr 1884 in Saline County, but the birth date and place do not fit for our Berenice. However, she is not listed with her family in the 1885 Colorado census, so it does seem likely that she died before that time.

Listed as Bernice Willson, age 1 month, born in May in Missouri. Living with her parents.

1880 census
