    1. [GOLDRUSH] Re: Woolley surname

    3. More correct info on the Woolley family that I am looking for- They were in Lewis County New York - Township/town of Martinsburg. There is also a Zell Woolley living there and he is actually the one we believe who did some writing on the goldrush. Somehow we believe that Luke Jamerson (wife was Lucy Peebles), Leo Jamerson and Coy Jamerson are connected and Otis Stanton (wife was Lucy's sister Francis Peebles). Maybe the only connection is thru the Peebles lines, we are not sure but young Otis was living with William and Emeline Woolley in Lewis County but they disappear and oral history is that Otis went west along with the Jamersons and quite probably the Woolley family, and he returned to marry Francis. The Woolley family and Otis are in the 1850 census in NY. Any bits and pieces would be helpful! Also searching for info on Otis' parents...they say they died young, but no hard information...Jehial & Rachel Stanton. thanks!-Charmaine
