--------------------- Forwarded message: Subj: Samuel, Dear Old Samuel Date: 97-07-13 20:55:35 EDT From: Angeluss To: DPratt5325 Page 5 of Howard Wolfe's book on the Wolfe's The Clarisa Elizabeth Wolfe - Jacob Rodeneaver Family Samuel Wolfe 1832 _____________Teets Samuel Wolfe has been a most difficult person to identify and place in this genealogy. That he is definitely close related, there is no doubt. From available information, it would seem that he was a nephew of George, Jacob and Augustine as listed on Page 1. If this be true, the he would have to be a son of John or the daugher of Clarissa. From the absence of any records concerning his birth, and the ambiguous mention of his parentage, it would seem reasonable to assume that he was the illegitimate son of the remaining sister, Clarissa. Tradition handed down seems to bear this contention out. His wife was a sister to three of the spouses of Jacob's heirs, and jwould supposedly be about their ages. If in the future, his true identity is established, his lineage may be incorporated in this genealogy, as is, or may be easily removed and listed separately. Any person in this genealogy having the code beginning wit the lettters AD would belong to the family of this Samuel Wolfe. The similarity of this family to that of Jacob, as given by King: George;Jacob; Augustine; Clarissa, and John. Was this Jacob married more than once and we have the parts of two families?
