Primarily included on the RUNCIMAN One Name Study pages to show where the family info about the "brother in London" whose children were brought up at Wanton Walls fits into the family equation.
The author, George Smith, quotes from the memoirs of "the venerable Dr Fairbairn of Newhaven": "John Wilson was one of a group of boys who received their early education at the parish school of Lauder, and most of whom proceeded together to the University of Edinburgh. .. [various names listed, incl.] James and David Runciman ... and others."
"... There was one of our number (James Runciman) whom our teacher always characterised as the 'boy who never told a lie', and he used to associate John Wilson with him in this honourable distinction."
