Surnames: Woods Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/RS.2ADE/1278 Message Board Post: My ancestor is Stephen Woods, b1832 in Marion County, AL and moved as a child to Choctaw County, MS with his mother and father about 1833. The next child was born in 1834 in Mississippi. Stephen's mother was Elizabeth (Fowler) Woods born in Georgia. She is head of household in 1850 in Choctaw County so the father must have died and I don't know his name. I am looking for a connection in Marion county prior to 1832. The 1830 Marion County census lists Aaron Woods, John Woods, Oliver Woods, and Thomas Woods. Does anyone have information on these families?
