Charles B. Wilson, the son of William B Wilson and Polly Huff, was born on 6 Apr 1876 in Collin County, Texas. He died on 16 Dec 1951 in Cortez, Montezuma, Colorado. He was buried on 20 Dec 1951 in the Cortez Cemetery, Montezuma County, Colorado.
Charles was called "my little Honey Bee" by his mother (Mary Polly Huff Wilson). The name "B" stuck and he was called that most of his life. He went by Charles "B" Wilson, except for the Family Bible entry which gives his name as Charles Venton Wilson.
Charles met Pearl Hatfield at a dance in Estelle, Oklahoma. She was 16 and he was 26 years old. They married on 14 Dec 1902 in Woods, Oklahoma.
Pearl and Charles were the parents of eight children: Vern, Maymie, Lillie, John, Buck, Pat, Juanita, and Charles Lloyd.
They raised their family in Oklahoma, Arkansas, and in Utah, where Charles homesteaded land.
Charles B. worked on cattle drives around Santa Fe and Santa Rose, NM until he got married.
Some enterprising family member added the Wilson family "Brand" to the headstone -- slash H -- "/ H"
