As for the information I have so far on Martha Vashti Woodruff her ancestors were from NJ. I do have a Lydia Woodruff born December 02, 1821 in West Milford, Passaic County, New Jersey. She was the daughter of Cornelius and Drucilla Decker Woodruff. Cornelius was also from West Milford, New Jersey. He was the son of Joseph Woodruff bn. March 13, 1764 son of Benjamin Woodruff bn. 1728 and Margaret unknown. I don't have a marriage for her. However you may want to check out the following webpage on the Woodruff surname for more information. << <A HREF="http://www.nataliesnet.com/woodruff/desc02.htm#13756"> http://www.nataliesnet.com/woodruff/desc02.htm#13756</A> >>> I also have David Woodruff married Oliva Chase born NY abt. 1801.

My gggg - grandfather (Luthe Case) was the son of Benejah Case and Lydia Woodruff. Lydia was born abt 1741in Hartford, CT. I believe she is the daughter of Jonah/Josiah Woodruff and Sara Woodford. Luther Case came to Ohio prior to 1823, possibly as early as 1812. He married (2nd marriage) and settled in Gallia/Meigs in 1823. >>
