February 17, 2000 Hello, I have a new email address since my last request for information about my Grandmother. So, I thought I would post it again & hopefully I can make a connection with someone. I have been searching for any information about my Grandmother "DOROTHY WOOD" from Ft. Smith, Arkansas for many years now. She married my Grandfather "TOMMY WILKERSON" from Webbers Falls, Oklahoma back in 1935 or so. TOMMY and DOROTHY had four children together during their marriage. My father "THOMAS LEE WILKERSON" (their oldest son) now lives in Texas & we're very interested in making ends meet. My dad has not seen his mother (DOROTHY) since he was 5 years old (1942), due to their bad divorce. We believe she has remarried since then, but we are not certain. I would like to know anything about her - I am more than willing to exchange or compare notes with anyone that might have a connection with me. Thanks!

Hello fellow WOOD/WOODS researchers, Does anyone know how or where I could obtain a copy of or access to the book "The WOOD Family History: A Century of Letters" by Minna Evangeline Bradhurst? Thank you in advance for any help you can give me. Sincerely, Jesse Lee "Jack" WOOD,III Powell, Ohio, USA (Formerly from TX) jwood1@mindspring.com

Hello Mike, Thanks for your reply. I don't really have anything to go on other than Family heresay that says there was a connection between my WOOD(s) line and the well known John AYLMER (ELMER) b. 1521 Tilney, Norfolk, England Line. Any connection would probably be before 1840. What were the locations and dates for your grandfather, William B. WOODS and grandmother, Emily J. ELMORE?

The George Woods who was living in Northumberland County, PA at the time of the 1790 Federal Census with (1,3,5,0,0) and who appears in the 1800 Federal Census of Centre Co., PA with (10301-00201) is believed to be the son of John Woods, Esq. of West Pennsborough Twp., Cumberland Co., PA who died testate in 1790. This George Woods lived in a part of Northumberland County that became part of Centre County in 1800, specifically Penns Twp.. This George Woods was written-up in the "History of Centre and Clinton Counties, Penn." by John Blair Linn in 1883. The book was reprinted in 1975 by J.S. Lippincott & Co. of Philadelphia. On page 290 concerning Centre County is the following: "About 1774 George Woods ascended Sinking Creek and settled near the base of Egg Hill. and upon the same place now occupied by his grandson, George. He built a fulling-mill, undoubtedly the first one in the valley, at which he worked for a great many years. It is said that he also combined the manufacture of cow-bells with his business. He often said he travelled through a great many States, but never came upon such a dense wilderness as presented itself to his sight upon his first advent in Penn's valley. He died Aug. 14, 1819, aged 73. Margaret his wife died Mar. 23, 1822, aged 73. His sons were John and MATTHEW Woods. The latter built Farmer's mills in 1815, which he sold to the Cookes and then removed to the State of Michigan. One of George Woods' daughters married James Hutchinson. George Woods a son of John Woods is now living at the old place." John Woods died Oct. 14, 1821 ae 46, and George and John Woods are both buried in the Presbyterian Church cemetery at Centre Hill. [p. 410]. I believe that John Woods, Esq. came from Lancaster County east of the Susquehanna River prior to 1750 when he first arrived from northern Ireland. George W. Page

My answer to him, which unfortunately contained some bold text, was as follows: Hi Brett: I don't have any specifics about the above, except the MITCHELL name again comes to my attention! Through Rich's (Hayden) research, he has uncovered more about two John McDowell's of Juniata and Mifflin counties, PA, one of whom married a Jane MITCHELL! Supposedly Col./Judge George Woods m. a Jean McDowell, probably in the Tuscarora Valley (Juniata Co., PA) c. 1753 before he was captured in Lack Twp., by the Indians in 1756. This is the same place where his father Thomas Woods was killed by Indians in 1754. My comments back to Rich were as follows: >John McDowell of Lack Twp. in 1762 who had a brother named William McDowell. I agree with you Rich that there is not yet a link to George Woods, EXCEPT the two familiess' physical proximity in Lack Twp.! I also agree that he could be the father of the following John McDowell b. near Milroy in Mifflin Co. as the name agrees and the dates appear to be correct. >John McDowell of Mifflin Co. , b. near Milroy, June 26, 1800 who was the oldest of nine children of John & Jane (MITCHELL) McDowell. Here's some more that I found out about the McDowell-Mitchell connection: "A John McDowell, a native of Scotland, was an early settler to the Cumberland Valley, but there is no apparent relationship to the William McDowell line described above. John had AT LEAST the following children, but the order of birth is unknown: "i. Col. John McDowell, JR., b. 1767 in the Cumberland Valley (the son of John McDowell), and married Jane MITCHELL. They lived in the Kishacoquillas Valley of present-day Mifflin County. He was a Colonel in the militia of Mifflin County. They had a daughter ROSANNA McDowell (b. Aug. 21, 1806 - d. Nov. 13, 1882) who married Andrew Sharp the son of Capt. Alexander and Margaret (McDowell) Sharp. No relationship has been traced between the family of John McDowell and William McDowell (b. in Ireland in 1680 - d. at Wright's Ferry in 1759) of Peters Twp. (who m. Mary Irving and had sons: John m. Agnes Craig; William who m. Mary Maxwell; Nathan who m. Catherine Maxwell; James who m. Jane Smith; and Thomas who d. in June 1806)." "ii. Margaret McDowell m. (1) Capt. Alexander SHARP, a son of Thomas and Margaret (Elder) Sharp who were natives of Norther Ireland of Scottish extraction who came from near Belfast, in county Antrim. They immigrated to Penn. in 1747 and settled near Newville in the Cumberland Valley. Thomas and Margaret Sharp had another son, Andrew Sharp, b. in 1750, who married an Annie WOODS! Whose daughter, or widow, was she?" _________ Another interesting connection Rich found concerns the George Woods who was living in Northumberland County, PA at the time of the 1790 Federal Census who we believe was the son of John Woods, Esq. of West Pennsborough Twp., Cumberland Co., PA who died testate in 1790. This George Woods lived in a part of Northumberland County that became part of Centre County in 1800, specifically Penn Twp..

Looking for information on the James Woods who married Martha Berry in Caswell County NC on 10 Dec 1822 (LDS entry). Since I assume this James is descendant from Samuel Woods and Mary Mitchell (and is not the same James who married Martha Hughes on in 1819) is this James the son of: 1.

Jack, I ran across a Jessy Woods on the 1810 Christian County KY Census. The thing is, the family(ies) were only there for that one enumeration, and are basically a NC/SC family. I know at least one this group (Thomas Woods) ended up living in Dallas County Alabama. If you think there might be some remote chance of a connection for you, let me know and I will forward what I have on the group. I havn't been able to place Jessy in any one of the particular lines, but I know this one is part of the Joseph Woods-Elizabeth Logan family. He's enumerated on the same page as Thomas Woods and Isham Frame Woods. The entry indicates Jessy (in 1810) was between 16-26 years old, as was his wife, and they had one male child under age 10. The Thomas listed is the son of Joseph Woods and Isham is Joseph's grandson through a son Frame Woods. By the way, a number of them -- particularly Frame -- are listed simply as Wood - no s, on the early Census entries. I don't know if you find this of interest, but let me know. /Brett/ Brett F.

Hello Doris, My g-grandfather is also named Jesse Lee WOOD. My father was Jesse Lee WOOD,II and I am the III.

He married my great-grandmother, Sarah Ann Fenn, about 1876 (age 20). My grandmother, Arrie May Wood Almanrode, was born 8/26/1880 but I don't know any of the locations. Arrie May married Perry Otto Almanrode about 1900 and my mother, Anna Louise Almanrode was born 9/1/1904 in Xenia, IL (Clay County). I'm assuming Jesse must have died early because my great-grandmother's last name was McComick when she came to see me in Los Angeles, CA about 1940. I was born in 1938. I hope someone is able to tie this in and assist me. Thanks, Doris DKarabinus@aol.com

Hi Debbie, Anything is possible I believe. I do not know much about my Thomas Wood(s). He was the only known brother of my great grandmother, Amanda Charlotte Wood. She was born 1861-7 and I just figure he was somewhere around her age, but I don't know. She told her kids she was born Dent Co., MO, but her one son's death paper says, Dent County, AR and other census so AR., MO or KY. So all we know is Amanda and Tom were supposed to be living with an aunt in Izard County, AR at least by 1881. Amanda would have been from 14 to 19, depending; and we don't know how old Tom was. However, in 1881 Dr. Walter Wickliffe Rivers supposedly hung up his MD shingle in Calico Rock, AR. Tom Wood(s) was taken with pneumonia and the doctor was called. We do not know what happened to Tom, but his sister and my great grandmother, Amanda Charlotte Wood, became involved with Dr. Rivers and gave birth to my grandfather, Robert Walter Wardman Rivers in Calico Rock in April 1882. The doctor supposedly married Amanda (can't find it) but Amanda said his horse came back alone to the house when whe was quite "with child." Amanda said she never saw Rivers again and heard the next day he was riding with the James Gang as their doctor and was killed, or the Gang killed him or some such story. History notes my grandfather was born the month and year Jesse James was killed -- so that is no doubt where Amanda got that story. (And it probably was BIG NEWS!) Then in only 1884 or 5 she gave birth to a second son, Alfred Shelby Harwell, in Calico Rock. She would have been abut 16 if family history is correct, or as old as 24. Father, "G.H. Harwell (from Alfred's death papers). No one ever saw him that I know of except Amanda. Does anything ring a bell with anyone, I hope? Thanks.
