http://www.nobel.se/physics/laureates/1927/wilson-bio.html
Charles Thomson Rees Wilson was born on the 14th of February, 1869, in the parish of Glencorse, near Edinburgh. His father, John Wilson, was a farmer, and his ancestors had been farmers in the South of Scotland for generations. His mother was Annie Clerk Harper.
At the age of four he lost his father, and his mother moved with the family to Manchester, where he was at first educated at a private school, and later at Owen's College - now the University of Manchester . Here, intending to become a physician, Wilson took up mainly biology. Having been granted an entrance scholarship in 1888 he went on to Cambridge ( Sidney Sussex College ), where he took his degree in 1892. It was here that he became interested in the physical sciences, especially physics and chemistry. (It was also possible that Wilson's decision to abandon medicine was influenced by Balfour Stewart, who was professor of physics at Owen's College at that time - about a dozen years earlier, J. J. Thomson

Charles Thomson Rees Wilson (1869 - 1959)
Taught no science at school, Wilson's interest sprung from the microscope he was given when he was thirteen. He went on to study medicine at Manchester in 1884, and continued as a research physicist at Cambridge University. An avid climber, in 1894 he worked briefly at the summit observatory on Ben Nevis and was amazed by the optical effects caused by the interaction of sunlight and cloud. These effects included coloured coronas around the sun, and shadows of the hill and observers cast on the mist below. The following year he was watching a mist-shrouded Ben Nevis when a storm broke out, and he experienced the massive electric field associated with storms as his hair stood on end, charged with static electricity. He decided to recreate the effects in his laboratory, and made clouds by expanding moist air in a chamber, with the moisture condensing on dust particles ('condensation nuclei') at a critical saturation point. He was surprised to discover that, even when all the dust particles were removed, he could continue to create clouds if he expanded the moist air sufficiently. To try and explain this effect, he rapidly expanded air in a glass vessel above water. He observed two distinct types of condensation. The first was rain-like and was produced repeatedly by low expansions, and the second was a cloud-like fog, found at higher expansions. This fog was very similar to the optical effects he had observed previously. He concluded that condensation could be created both on dust, and on rare spontaneously produced nuclei (actually ions).
