About The Gittins - Robbins Family
Hello, Welcome to our family tree website. Feel free to add your family members, share stories and
upload pictures as you navigate the site.
A big thanks goes out to Connie Matteson, she sent in information about our Uncle Nick Wilson. Elijah Nicholas (Nick) Wilson came across the US in an OX cart to the Salt Lake valley as a child in
the mid 1850's. He wrote a book titled "The White Indian Boy" about his life which includes stories of
early pioneer life in Utah, living with the Shoshone Indians, riding for the pony express - and mentions that he even founded the town of Wilson Wyoming. The book is a great read. There's also a
Movie on Dvd that is based loosely on his life.
Here is a search on Amazon that will list all the book and DVD offerings regarding Uncle Nick.

Click the links that say "Look inside" to read the intro or part of a chapter. Some search results will list
"The White Indian Boy" and its sequel "The Return of the White Indian Boy". The first book was written by Uncle
Nicks and the second book was written by his son Charles A Wilson describing adventures Nick had later in
life. You can find these books here:
