After Hours

Family

My wife, Ellen, and I make our home in the suburbs of Kansas City. We have three children, Nathan, Althea, and Jeremiah. Althea is attending the University of Missouri at Rolla, working on her master's degree in aerospace engineering. Jeremiah is majoring in civil engineering at the same school.  Nathan is attending Johnson County Community College. Ellen (who used to teach in a one-room schoolhouse in eastern Oregon and at a Christian school in California) finds time to quilt, bake, and pursue other projects. Pets include one cat, "Sugar".

Church

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God. ... For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Rom. 3:23, 6:23, KJV)
We attempt to follow the principles and teaching of the Bible, and we attend the services of Lawrence Bible Chapel in Lawrence, Kansas.

Travel

Though some like to fly to faraway places, I prefer to keep my feet on the ground, or at least on the floorboards of the car. We enjoy visiting national parks, museums, historical sites, and relatives. Even our children have been to all of the lower 48 states, all by car.

Genealogy

I have spent many years tracing my ancestors (1/4 Scottish, 1/4 Irish, and 1/2 German) as well as Ellen's ancestors (who were primarily American colonists and western pioneers). Our travels often include stops at out-of-the-way libraries, cemeteries, and courthouses. You can see some of the results at Wilson's Family History web site.
