    3. The following was just kindly sent to me by a descendent through the Farmer line. I wanted to share this with the list since I had been posting regarding Michael Branstetter who is a son of the Henry Clay Branstetter and Catherine Jane Woodson below. Thanks. Anne Allen WOODSON married Jane "Jennie" TAYLOR. They had Allen WOODSON b 1793 and Stephen WOODSON b 1802. Allen WOODSON b 1793 married Nancy FARMER. They had Jane WOODSON who married John S. BRANSTETTER. Stephen WOODSON b 1802 married Selina POSEY. They had Catherine Jane WOODSON who married Henry Clay BRANSTETTER. So Jane WOODSON and Catherine Jane WOODSON were first cousins through their WOODSON fathers. . But more than that. Nancy FARMER was a daughter of Marlin FARMER and Betsy ECHOLS. Marlin was a son of James FARMER and Jane AIKEN. Selina POSEY was a daughter of Jensie FARMER and Robert POSEY. Jensie was a daughter of James FARMER and Jane AIKEN. So Jane WOODSON and Catherine Jane WOODSON were also related (second cousins right?) through the FARMER line, in addition to the WOODSON line.
