Born in Parker, Pennsylvania, Wilson moved to Kentucky in the 1870s, where he became a significant figure in the local art scene, particularly in Frankfort. He was also recognized for his poetry, with his most famous work being the patriotic poem *Remember the Maine*, published during the Spanish-American War.
