    1. WOODS & POWERS
    2. VEWhite
    3. Oliver WOODS, son of Benjamin and Bethiah (TAYLOR) WOODS, married his first cousin Mary POWERS, daughter of Jonathan and Rebecca (WOODS) POWERS on 5 Jan 1818 in Kirby VT. This family was originally from Dunstable MA area (which later became Dunstable NH and Nashua NH). Jonathan and Rebecca (WOODS) POWERS were living in Weathersfield, Windsor Co. VT in 1790 but had moved to Concord, Essex Co. VT by 1800. They stayed in Concord until at least 1810 but had moved to Kirby, Caledonia Co. VT by 1820. In 1830 they were in Lyndon, Caledonia Co. VT. They were in Lowell, Orleans Co. VT in 1840 when Jonathan died. His widow Rebecca moved back to Lyndon and died there in 1848. I am rather uncertain when Benjamin and Bethiah (TAYLOR) WOODS moved to VT. They were in Dunstable NH in 1796 and I think they were living in Lyndon, Caledonia Co. VT by 1800. And I think they were in Lowell, Orleans Co. VT by 1820. It appears that Benjamin and Bethiah were alive in 1840, living in Lowell. But I lose track of them after that. I would love to know the names of the POWERS and WOODS children born in Caledonia Co. VT. I think some of them must have remained there, married and had children of their own. Do I have any "cousins" out there in Caledonia Co. VT? I appreciate any help you can give. Vickie Elam White
