Mary E. Wilson (c.1858-?) was born in Michigan and died in an unknown
location. She was the wife of Altus T. Wilson, a partner in Belden & Wilson, a Las
Vegas, New Mexico, grocery store. In early 1886 Mary E. Wilson became interested in
metaphysical healing and was thinking about studying with Clara Elizabeth Choate, a
student of Mary Baker Eddy's who had been expelled from the Christian Scientist
Association. Instead, despite the protestations of her husband, she decided to study
with Mary Baker Eddy, studying with her in August 1886 and joining the Christian
Scientist Association shortly afterwards.
