MITOSIS: Got it! Darn, I thought there was something more to it. To all, I am collecting information on "Father Dickey," and am willing to share what little I have. I'm from his son, Patrick Alexander "Alex" WOOD who married Bethany BRAMMER. Problem is, I have little. Harumph. Now I can poke fun at me, too, because you all know how difficult it is to sort those WOOD/BRAMMER lines. MAJOR CONFUSION OF MY DAY (I can't say week or year, because confusion is a daily obstacle in my existence. LOL): Has anyone figured out who Father Dickey's wife, Fanny BRAMMER, was? I've received generous suggestions that she was a daughter of John BRAMMER, and that she died on 30 Aug 1830; she was daughter of John BRAMMER....but *which* John BRAMMER? Compiled Marriage Records, Patrick Co., VA., p. 131: Sept. 1823 [day didn't copy!], Richard WOOD and Nancy (Fanny) BRAMMER. Sur. John BRAMMER. Min. Stephen HUBBARD. M.R. 09 Sept 1823. And did she also marry Nelson MORAN? And *which* Nelson MORAN? Nelson MORAN did marry a BRAMMER...Nancy BRAMMER, daughter of John BRAMMER and Sarah LEE (surety: Jonathan BRAMMER). But if this Nancy BRAMMER is the same person who married Richard WOOD, then how is it she died in 1830 and then married in 1839? I have a headache. Lainie Hendrix
