Hi Jean, All I have is speculation. Lemuel Woodhouse mentioned his Uncle, Thomas Taylor, in his Will. I have checked in every way that I can to see how Thomas could be his uncle and the only way that I can figure is that he was the brother of Lemuel's mother. That would make her a Taylor. The daughter was named, Mary, so her mother may have been Mary Taylor. Of course, she could be been name after her grandmother if Elizabeth were not her grandmother, but John's second wife. Sorry I can't be of more help. I wish I knew. Julia In a message dated 1/29/2010 4:16:05 P.M. Central Standard Time, jfstms@bellsouth.net writes: Do you have the name of Mary's mother? I have never been able to find a name. Do you have a maiden name for her grandmother. All I have is Elizabeth. I know Elizabeth was married first to Adam Hayes before marrying John Woodhouse, Jr. Thanks, Jean ----- Original Message ----- From: <juliafwood@aol.com> To: <nccurrit@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, January 04, 2010 1:53 PM Subject: Re: [NCCURRIT] Father of Joseph Gray, m.
