JONATHAN K. WILDS (deceased). The gentleman whose name heads this sketch was born on Walnut Hills, near Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept. 8, 1799, and died at Lebanon, Feb. 7, 1839, in the 40th year of his age; he was the son of J. E. and Frances (Kemper) Wilds; he was educated in a private school on Walnut Hills, and, when about 22 years of age, came to Lebanon, where he engaged very successfully in the practice of law. On the 5th of May, 1830, he married Miss Sarah Gilchrist, a daughter of Robert and Mary (Wilson) Gilchrist, of Lebanon, who died September 8, 1868. They had three children, viz., Mary Frances, Jacob Lowe and Maria G.; of these, the first two died in infancy, and the last, Maria G., is still living in Lebanon, being the only survivor of her family. Her father was a man of great talents and a thorough lawyer; in politics, a Whig, and, at the time of his death, Clerk of the Courts of Warren County.
