I don't grow ginkos, and don't know why your leaves are wilting, but they are 
commonly grown by
municipalities.  I understand the trees tolerate air pollution, and the males 
are relatively tidy
street trees.  You might try asking whoever is in charge of trees for the 
nearest municipality
large enough to have such an employee.  (my town hires an arborist, so it 
doesn't have to be a
very large municipality.)  Your local (or nearby) arborist probably knows 
what's up with them.
