[edit]The section that says that Justin Wilson does not have any french ancestry is incorrect. Justin Wilson's french ancestory can be tracked from his mother's side to Dorcas Tabitha (Huie) Wells, an immigrant from France. DeeYew (talk) 01:14, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- The following section appears to be original research, so I will tag it as needing references, which should be from reliable sources, not from some editor looking for evidence of Cajun ancestry online and not finding it: “ While Wilson presented himself as Cajun in his act, it is unclear if he had any actual Acadian or French ancestry. His father Harry Wilson was of Welsh descent. Justin Wilson described his mother, the former Olivet Mintern Toadvin (1880–1976), as Cajun, but she has no known ancestors who either were Acadian, lived in the Cajun regions of Louisiana, or emigrated from France. (She did, however, teach Justin how to cook.) Her surname Toadvin derives from a native of Guernsey who immigrated to Maryland circa 1675. The Florida Parishes, where the family lived, were not part of the French or Spanish colonies of Louisiana.” Edison (talk) 12:48, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
