Always looking for any information on my Green Co. Ancestors. Nathan Dempsey "Dempse" Ricker son of Sarah Woods-Ricker Benjamin Franklyn Ricker (Aka Marion F. Ricker) son of Sarah Woods-Ricker Sarah Woods, Daughter of Zedeciah/Heziciah/Zed Woods and Elizabeth Knight Sarah was married #1 to Joseph Ricker who died in the Civil war. She went on to have 4 more children after his death. she never re-married, but all the children took the Ricker surname. I belive that at least Dempse (my Gg grandfather) and Frank were the sons of James Jenks/Jinks. who Sarah was living with in 1870 (listed on the census) Here is a rough outline on decendants of Zed and Elizabeth as I have it.
