Suggested edit: George Wilson was born near Windsor Castle in London, England.
George Wilson's name in England was George King. He was apprenticed to a boiler maker by his guardian and older brother Edward King. At age 14, he ran away to America and changed his name to Wilson so he could not be found by the boiler maker.
