Wilson, Samuel Jennings, 1828-1883

Wilson, Samuel Jennings, 1828-1883

 
Wilson spent much of his life in Appalachian Pennsylvania. He studied at Washington College (now Washington and Jefferson College) and the Western Theological Seminary (now Pittsburgh Theological Seminary). He also taught at Western for 25 years while pastoring several churches, including the Sixth Presbyterian Church of Pittsburgh (1861-76).

Additional information can be found in W. H. Jeffers’ memoir, which was published as part of Wilson’s Occasional Addresses and Sermons (New York: Dodd, Mead & Company, 1895).

    Occasional Addresses and Sermons

    Samuel Jennings Wilson, Maurice E. Wilson, and Calvin Dill Wilson

    This posthumously-published volume was edited by Maurice E. Wilson and Calvin Dill Wilson (their relation to Samuel is uncertain), and includes a memoir by William H. Jeffers, a professor at the Western Theological Seminary. The 18 pieces included here are “specimens of his biographical and historical addresses, patriotic speeches, and sermons” (p. v). Some had been previously published elsewhere, but it was apparently “the wish of many that they be collected into one volume, together with additional material from manuscript” (p. v).
