'Traces the descendants of William Wilson (1816-1891) who emigrated with his family from Scotland on the Agincourt in 1850. He became a shepherd on sheep runs round Penola. After a trip to the Victorian goldfields, he was able to purchase a block of land in Penola and became a market gardener and orchardist.

This history traces his antecedents and descendants through his daughters, Margaret who married William Neilson (1842-1916), and Euphemia, who married George Seymour Townsend (1842-1886), and son James Dickson Wilson (1850-1922).' - the publisher.
