Can you believe this is Main Street/Wilson Boulevard/Highway 21?  The Wilson family was a prominent family and very active in community and church life in Blythewood. 
 This week I was asked to include Mr. Wilson's son, who now lives in Charleston, on our list to receive the newsletter.  Please pass on the newsletter to friends and family who may enjoy the news of Blythewood and these little history tidbits.  Or direct friends to the Town of Blythewood's official website where they can sign up to receive the newsletter.
