Biographical History

Accounts of EMW's trip west in 1851, and life in The Dalles, Oregon during the latter half of the nineteenth century. She went west to teach and later married Joseph G. Wilson, circuit court judge in Oregon. After her husband's death, EMW was appointed postmistress of The Dalles by President Grant in 1873. Also, recollections by EMW's daughter, Lucy Wilson Peters, tributes to Joseph G. Wilson, and material relating to other pioneer families in Oregon.
