Ephraim King Wilson II

Biography

Ephraim King Wilson II was born in 1821 and drew upon a deep sense of civic duty that guided him through a career of public service, including years representing Maryland in Congress and lending his voice to the needs of the Eastern Shore.

He returned often to Makemie Memorial to find encouragement in prayer and fellowship, and that grounding now rests peacefully beside his memorial stone as his family and constituents remember his steady hand.
