Wilson (Nelson) Teague
A side story for the difference in his name.
His given name at birth was Nelson Henry Teague. He joined the Navy at 17. He did not have a birth certificate so his mother had to sign an affidavit as to his name & birth date. Her Nelson was interpreted As Wilson. He didn't discover the error right away. When he took it to authorities, they pretty much told him that is your name & wouldn't make the change. The Navy had a birth certificate made & all his records now have Wilson. So he is now Wilson (Nelson) Henry Teague. All his close friends would have known him as Nelson or Teague.
