After recording this oral history in June 2022, the Wilsons very kindly put me in touch with other Returned Peace Corps Volunteers who were also part of the first group assigned to Liberia in West Africa sixty years earlier in 1962. In addition to the Wilsons, I had the pleasure of recording oral histories that year with Nancy Bell, George Hess, Geraldine Kennedy, George Vance and Larry Walker. - Stephen Fagin, Curator
