To Cpzb4@aol.com: Thank you for taking time to post this. My dilema is which John Woolfolk is my ancestor; John F., John C., John G. ?? His will is signed simply John Woolfolk. My only clues are the names of his sons, Vivian Broadus Woolfolk (1809-1895) and John R. (Rupert??) WOolfolk (1819-1867). Vivian Broadus Woolfolk had a son named John George Woolfolk but the family of John George Woolfolk (1750-1819) is well documented and I cannot make any connection to it.(His son John wasn't born until 1805). Vivian Broadus Woolfolk was a doctor and probably received his training in VA so if anyone has any ideas where I might find info about that please let me know. >From: Cpzb4@aol.com >To: VACAROLI-L@rootsweb.com >Subject: RE: Woolfork of Caroline Co./ and others mentioned >Date: Fri, 18 Aug 2000 13:18:20 EDT > >Chancery Suits: > >Frances Woolfolk, widow of Charles Woolfolk, Subblett B.
