About Wilson

Wilson is a small rural city in the northeastern quadrant of Lynn County, Texas, United States. The 2020 census counted 434 residents. Wilson was established in 1912 by William Dickson Green of Shiner, Texas, and Lonnie Lumsden. Early settlers included German and Polish emigrant farmers who acquired property on former Wilson County School lands located in Lynn County, hence the city's name. Wilson makes sense once you see how its past, landscape, and current gathering spots overlap. The useful thing to know about Wilson is that its older landmarks and current settings belong to one connected place. Wilson rests upon the level High Plains of the Llano Estacado in West Texas. Wilson is situated at the intersection of Farm to Market Road 400 and Farm to Market Road 211.
