Wing, who resides in section 20, Rockford Township, Winnebago County, was born in Roxbury, Delaware County, N.Y., on the 9th of December, 1809, and is a son of Samuel Wing, a native of Fishkill, Dutchess County, N.Y. The grandfather, Elihu Wing, was also a native of the Empire State and a member of the Society of Friends. He removed from Dutchess County to Whiteplains, N.Y., in a very early day. He met his death while assisting in raising a building.

Subsequently, he returned to Delaware County, and later removed to Chenango County where his death occurred. He married Esther Bennett, who was born in Fishkill, Dutchess County, N.Y., and was a daughter of Ebenezer and Elizabeth (Kelly) Bennett. She spent her last years with her daughter in the town of Hector, N.Y."
