Elizabeth Woods imigrated to Pennsylvania in 1724 with her 4 brothers. She removed some 10 years later to what is now Albemarle Co., Va. Children: 8. i William Wallace born 1706. 9. ii Samuel Wallace born 1708. iii Michael Wallace born abt 1709.1 of Rockbridge, Va. 10. iv Andrew Wallace born 1711. v Adam Wallace born 1713, Ireland. 11. vi Susanna Wallace born 1719. 12. vii Peter Wallace Jr born 1719. 4. Michael Woods (2.John2 , 1.John1 ) born 1684, Dunshauglin Castle,Meath Co., Ireland, married Mary Campbell , born 1690, Argylshire, Scotland,, (daughter of Sir James Campbell and Susan Campbell) died 1765, Albemarle Co.,Va. Michael died 1762, Albemarle Co.,Va. _From Woods, Rev. Neander M.; The Woods-McAfee Memorial: "In the year 1724 there came to Pennsylvania fron the North of Ireland one Michael Woods, his brother William, and their widowed sister Elizabeth Wallace, and a number of their children. It has been a current belief in the Woods family that Michael, William and Elizabeth had two brothers, James and Andrew, who migrated with them to America. At the date of the migration Michael Woods was forty years old, and William was twenty-nine. Elizabeth was probably the eldest of the party, and about forty-two years old, and had with her at least six children by her husband, Peter Wallace, who was not long since deceased." _Michael and his family removed to Virginia, where Michael was an original proprietor in Albemarle Co., Va., and served as a Lieutenant Colonel in the militia.

Hey Guys, WE'RE BACK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It seems like such a very, very long time! I guess I must have gone through withdrawl pains. I'm certain that everyone has some questions or queries built up, so let's get down to work again and find our WALLACE ancestors. Chuck Carter

I haven't asked for a while so I thought that I would try again. I am looking for any information about the parents or siblings of Nancy Jane Wallace. She was born in 1758 and died in 1825. I do not know where she was born but she died in Spring Creek, Clay County, KY. She was married to Felix Gilbert about 1789 but it is not known where but probably in Anderson County, TN or in NC. They had ten children, Hamilton, Isaac, James, John, William, Wallace, Felix, Asa, Mary Ann, Haywood, and Jennie Jane. I am a descendant of Asa Gilbert. We have been unsuccessful at pinpointing exactly where in NC Felix was born or anything about either of Felix or Nancy Jane's parents. I am willing to share what I have on their descendents. Thank you for any help you may offer. Teresa Kidd

Chuck, Thank you for providing this Wallace list. I hope you keep it as is. Some of the Wallace list members need to realize that when these spams come, that nothing needs to be done by them except to delete the message. You will take care of the offending party, without all the comments.. You are doing a great job and I appreciate it very much. Shirley Wallace Norton

Still searching for any descendants of Fletcher Wallace born abt. 1903 in Clarkton, Dunklin Co. , Mo. Fletcher was the son of John Wallace and Linnie Ednester and the half brother to my father , Andrew Jackson Wallace. Fletcher Wallace also had an uncle named Sterling Wallace that also lived in Clarkton. Would also like the descendants of Sterling Wallace. Anyone researching Wallace surname in Dunklin Co. MO i would like to hear from and compare notes. Shirley Wallace Norton shirley@wsawebs.com

Nancy, In the book " The Wallace Family in America" by James A Phelps, there is a Peter Wallace and his brother William, of Scotch-Irish immigrants. They were married to sisters named Elizabeth and Hannah Woods. The book tells a short story about Peter Wallace and Elizabeth Wood and follows one line down. The children of Peter Wallace and Elizabeth Woods were: Andrew, Adam, Samuel and Peter all of whom are supposed to have been born in Ireland. Does this sound like your family? Let me know and I will send all the info on this family by email. Shirley Wallace Norton -----Original Message----- From: Nancy McGinty <ellijaynan@ellijay.com> To: WALLACE-L@rootsweb.com <WALLACE-L@rootsweb.com> Date: 02 June, 2003 7:17 AM Subject: [WALLACE-L] Peter Wallace >This may be old news to many of the Wallace researchers, but it was new to me. I'm hoping that someone can verify this for me. I have info that Peter Wallace, Jr. of Rockbridge county, Va. married Martha Woods @1744. One of their sons was John who married Jane Miller. The info that I have takes John's ancestors back to Henry de Bohun, the Surety who married Maud FitzGeoffrey @year 1200. My great aunt, long deceased, joined the Magna Charta Society of Dames based on this info. Can anyone give me more info on this? I do have the line of descent between Henry de Bohun and John Wallace. > >Nancy McGinty > > >

Dear Wallace Cousins. Even though I have been able to track my Wallace family back to Robert & Violet Jane Wallace in 1776 in MD., my brick wall has always been not knowing what happened to my grandfather, John Wallace and his children by his second marriage. That brick wall is beginning to crumble as I have met through the rootsweb state projects, the great granddaughter of my grandfather by his second wife. I am still waiting to hear more from her and when I get all the info I will post it . This is so exciting! Shirley Wallace Norton -

For all who were interested in the book "The Wallace Family in America by Jaames A. Phelps, published in 1914. The Clan Wallace Socity bought the rights to reprint this little book. Their add ress is Clan Wallace Society, Charles B. Wallace, President, PO Box 900, Dallas , Texas 75221. I hope that is still a good address.. The book list different Wallace families of Colonial times ( but by no means all of them). It also has an official list of the heads of families of the resident in the United States in 1790, I also bought some years ago, 7 vol. of a quarterly magazine called the "Wallace Connections" Some of these contain info such as deeds, land records, vestry records and a lot of it refers to Peter Wallace and the Woods families. I got a number of request from Wallace listers and if you just bare with me , I will get to each request as my time premits. Here is what I have on Peter Wallace from the Book:: " Aboout 1730, a company of Scotch-Irish immigrants were landed at Philadelphia, and after a brief sojourn went out to Lancaster. Amoung them were the brothers Peter and William Wallace, and whos wives were sisters named respectively, Elizabeth and Hannah Woods. Peter Woods, the patriarch of the family, was an enterprising individual, restless and lonquacious, bent on the acquistion of an extended domain. He fell in with one John Lewis, who was about to remove his family to a location he had selected for preemption, in the valley of Virginia, west of the Blue Ridge. Determining to accompany him thither, Peter Woods placed his family and affairs in charge of his three sons-in-law, and departed with the Lewis family early in 1734, passing southwestward across the Susquehanna, through the country bordering the Potomac and crossing the stream, they went down the Valley east ward to Alleghenies to the vicinity of what is now Staunton, Va., where Lewis proposed to settle. Early in the spring of 1735, two of the young men journeyed to Albemarie county, Va. one of whom remained and raised a crop of corn: the other returning to forward the preprations for the transfer of their entire connection to that section,--later: and that was accomplished the following spring. The old people settled on the site selected by the father:Peter Wallace, a little father south: William next:: and John McDowell, third of thesons -in-law, at Meccham's river: there they lived and reared their children. The children of Peter and Elizabeth (Woods) Wallace, were: Andrew, Adam, Samuel and Peter: all of whom are supposed to have been born in Ireland: and little is known of their subsequent history, except that Andrew married Catherine Parks and settled near the Allegheny mountains: and that the children of Peter, Jr. were: Joseph, Samuel, Janet and Rachel: While Samuel married Esther, daughter of Caleb Baker, of Prince Edward county, settling in Charlotte county , where their children were born: removing later to Kentucky. The children of Samuel and Esther ( Baker) Wallace were: Caleb, born 1742, Elizabeth born in 1745, Andrew born in September 25 1738.and Samuel , unrecorded and unheard of after he returned to Scotland. All that is known of this entire family comes through Caleb Wallace, whose biographer relates the career of a remarkable citizen and United States Judge, who throughout a busy and strenuous life was ever a leader amon the men of his time: active in shaping the legislation of Birginia , before the Revolution and of Kentucky after her admission as a State in 1792. H e was a graduate of Prineston as was also President Madison, with whom he maintained relations of friendship. He studied for and entered the Presbyterian ministry in which he held a distinguished place util the troublous times preceding the breaking out of war, emancipation from the tyranny of King and Parliamemnt;and the separation of Church and State including entire freedom of conscience. He married firsst, his cousin, Sarah McDowell, born October 10, 1755, who died early in 1776, leaving no issue: and second, in 1779, Rosanna daughter of Captian Isreal Christian, born in 1754, by whom he had nine children, born as follows: Samuel McDowell, April 16,1780, William C, October 16, 1781, who died young, Pricellia C., March 12 1785, Calab baker, May 22, 1787, John, October 13, 1789, Henry, March 24, 1792; William Christian, April 15,1794; Charles, 1794.Charles, September 9.1796And Christian, Nov. 21,1800. Mrs Rosanna) Christian) Wallace died December 3, 1804, and he married third, Mrs Mary Brown. Judge Calab Wallace died in 1814, at jis home in Woodford county , Kentuck,y. ....................................................... That's all I have out of the Wallace book. There are ssome more records on hhim in my Wallace Commection and I will get them out as soom as time premits..
