Help with 18-19th century Wilsons in Montgomery County Maryland?

Greetings friends. While recuperating from surgery I've had time to go through all the Wilsons of Maryland in the 1820 census looking for the father of Henry b 1804 or 1808 and Michael b 1812, both in Maryland. The best candidate (of course not the only one) was Henry S Wilson who appeared with several other Wilsons in this Montgomery MD 1820 census / WIlson. It seems he might be the neglected son Henry of Henry & Verlinda Wilson whose most notable son (because of a name that's hard to miss) was Zadock Wilson. I'd been looking for a poor Henry because his two sons Henry & Michael started pretty much from scratch - and there were ten children in the Henry/Verlinda family, so they surely didn't inherit much.

It seems the Montgomery MD land deeds are locked at Family Search and I can't drive to the FHC for another month. I have been digging in Frederick County Maryland for decades but never Montgomery. I would like to find any evidence of the life of these Henrys. Thank you.
