There's no mention as to whether she is from NC or ?. Didn't find a Matthew Woodruff [nor his elders,John or Moses] for 1860 or 1870 Census. Found the states you mentioned, however, with different heads of households, therefore some of the family was there at census taking time.. 1860, Lucas Co., Iowa: Federal Census, Washington Twp., IGS publ, 1997, p.34 dwelling #35: Woodruff, James 59 m farmer NY Martha A. 38 f KY Celicia L. 14 f MO Alice C. 12 f Iowa Caroline 10 f Iowa Henry B. 8 m Iowa Milliard F. 4 m Iowa Edward J. 1 m Iowa dwelling #36: Woodruff, William 29 m farmer Mass Martha G. 17 f Illinois Frank 2 m Iowa // 1870, Lucas Co., Iowa: No Woodruff's. There was one family headed by William Woodrough. Assume it's the William Woodruff in th e 1860 census?a variation on the name.
