J.C. Wilson was in the Confederate sword manufacturing business in 1862 and is listed in the Tr-Weekly Telegraph (Houston) on September 3, 1862 as being in the process of selling his sword manufacturing equipment and stock at J.C. Wilson, Main Street (Directory of American Military Goods Dealers, Bazelon & McGuinn, Page 532, Volume 2). He is unquestionably one of the very early war Confederate sword makers whose specimens are extremely scarce and sought after.
