He married Sarah, daughter of Rev. Thomas Hooker of Hart- ford, Conn. His house lot was where the town hall now stands, the house itself covering a portion of the ground on which that building stands. His home field opposite the house embraced the land lying between South and Pleasant Streets, nearly as far as Oak Street. A church having been formed here, Mr. Wilson was ordained Oct. 12, 1652. The town voted him a salary of £80 for the first year, and £50 annually thereafter. Mr. Wilson was actively interested in everything relating to the welfare of the church and the town. In the Indian war, his house was a hospital for wounded soldiers, and a retreat for refugees from Mendon and other places.
It is said that the first known instance of prayer at a funeral was when "Mr. Wilson, of Medfield, prayed with the company before they went to the grave," at the burial of Rev. William Adams of Roxbury in 1665. Lechford, who wrote in 1642, says : "At burials, nothing is read nor any funeral sermon made, but all the neighborhood, or a good company of them, come together by the tolling of the bell and carry the dead solemnly to his grave, and there stand by him while he is buried. The ministers are most commonly present."
On the Sunday just one week before his death, we are told he " preached both forenoon and afternoon, fervently and power- fully." Judge Sewall, in his Diary, says: "Mr. Wilson died on Sabbath day, Aug. 23, 1691, at about three o'clock P.M., seventy years of age wanting a month. ... The greater part of his church were present to behold and lament his removal from them." His widow remained in this town for a few years. Judge Sewall was here in September, 1697, and tells us that he called upon Mrs. Wilson. She was living in Mendon in 1702, probably with her youngest daughter, the estate here having been sold in 1701 to Eleazar Wheelock, who transformed it into an inn. No stone was erected to Mr. Wilson at the time: that now standing in our cemetery was placed there by Silas Plimpton at his own expense, he being then an old man, and, as he thought, the only one then living who knew for certainty the spot of burial.
Mr. Wilson preached the Artillery Election Sermon in 1668, but it is not known that he published anything.

to him immediately after my decease and to his heirs forever, always provided,

2nd. That whereas upon ye marriage of my daughter Elizabeth Wilson to my son-in-law Mr. Thomas Weld, I gave to her to the value of fifty pounds and was always doing for her whilst living, I do hereby will that the aforesaid legacy given to my said grandchild Thomas Weld shall include within it the twenty-five pounds which my Honored Father willed to my late daughter Elizabeth now with God, and that if he shall or any other on his behalf shall endeavor ye recovery of said legacy, then so much shall be deducted from what I have here bequeathed and willed to him.

Item; Whereas I have formerly given to my daughter Sarah now the wife of Mr. Josiah Torrey, upon her marriage to the late Mr. Paul Batt, a full portion equal to, if not exceeding what I now give to my other daughters, yet as a further manifestation of my most endeared love to her, I do give and bequeath unto her or her heirs five pounds in or as money to be paid out of my estate within one twelve month after my decease.
And to conclude this my will, I do hereby appoint and constitute my faithful and beloved wife Sarah Wilson my sole executrix to this my last will and testament.

JOHN 2 (John ') is first mentioned in our records in 1678, when he received bounty on a wolf. In 1685, he was employed to teach school. It was proposed about that time to settle him as a clergy- man with his father. The town refused to do this, but voted him liberty to preach sometimes, and take for pay what might be given in a free contribution. When he preached of a Sunday, he was permitted by vote to take two days out of his school for prepara- tion. After his father's death, it was proposed to give him a call, but this the town voted down. He seems to have been unsuc- cessful as a preacher. In 1697, we find the name of Mr. John Wilson, Physician, in the list of those in full communion here. He settled in Braintree on the ancestral place, where he practised his profession until his death about 1727. He took a wife, Sarah, about 1685, but of what family she was has not been ascertained. The first three births in his family were in Medfield. Children :
10. JOHN, 1686-1713; graduated at Harvard in 1705.
