There seems to some interest in the Middleton-Woods family relationships. as they moved from Franklin County VA to Laurens County SC. The following is some collected information that may provide some leads regarding these families. One caveat: none of this is etched in stone and again, these are just leads PETER MIDDLETON WOODS was born 1799 in Freecastle, Franklin County, Virginia, and died 1857 in Benton County, Tennessee. He married JANE WALSER February 16, 1826, daughter of FREDERICK WALSER and MARGARET ERNEST. At the date of April 29, 1837, Peter Middleton Woods was living in Davidson County, North Carolina, and signed as witness the pension application of his father-in-law, Fredrick Walser; applied for under the Revolutionary War Pension Act of June 7, 1832. THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF PETER MIDDLETON WOODS In the name of God amen. I Peter M.

I herein constitute and appoint my two sons William & Robert my executors to execute and carry out this my last will and Testament. In witness where of I have here unto set my hand and affixed my seal this the 21st day of September AD 1854. Peter M Woods Witness: C. S. Woods (NOTES: this is Citizen Stoval Woods, I believe the brother of Peter) Children of PETER WOODS and JANE WALSER are: WILLIAM WASHINGTON WOODS, b. April 24, 1826. ROBERT P. WOODS, b. 1827. HENRY EDWARD WOODS, b. Abt. 1828. FREDERICK THOMAS WOODS, b. February 10, 1833. JOHN C. WOODS, b. 1835. GEORGE F. WOODS, b. 1837. JANE AGNES WOODS, b. Abt. 1839. SAMUEL CITIZEN WOODS, b. Abt. 1841. WESLY W. WOODS, b. Abt. 1843. NAPOLEON BURROW WOODS, b. April 1847, Clarksburg, Carroll County, Tennessee; d. December 31, 1907, Holladay, Tennessee. ARCHIBALD P. WOODS, b. 1846. I believe the parents of both Peter and Citizen (as well as their other children -- Elizabeth H. Robert T., Samuel and George) are John Woods and Anne Agnes Hairston. John is the son of Robert Woods and Elizabeth Middleton. Robert's information is as follows: Robert Woods, born 1719 in Ireland; died 1811 in Franklin Co., Virginia. He was the son of James Woods and Mary?. He married Elizabeth Middleton 1752 in Lunenburg Co., Virginia. Elizabeth Middleton, born about 1725. She was the daughter of 262. John Middleton and 263. Margaret Ainsworth. Notes for Robert Woods: Robert Woods first appears in Lunenburg County, Virginia Deed Book 1 pages 6-8 on June 2, 1746 when he purchased, for 79 pounds, 213 acres on WoodsFork from John Martin and his wife Ann of Amelia County. The witnesses were John David and "John Midelton". This was only shortly after Lunenburg County was divided off from Brunswick County and became an official entity on May 1, 1746. He next appears on October 15, 1748 when he, David Caldwell and DavidLogan appraised the estate of Andrew Kennedy (Will Book 1, page 14). He then appears in the 1749 Lunenburg County tithe list of William Caldwell living in the area between Cubb Creek and Falling River along what is now the Campbell/Charlotte County line. His future father-in-law, John Middleton, and brother-in-law, Ainsworth Middleton, also appear on this list. The list for 1750 for William Caldwell also includes Robert Wood(s) as well as John Wood(s), Richard Wood(s) and Ainsworth Middleton. John and Richard may have been relatives. The 1752 list for William Caldwell includes Robert Woods. The next names on the list were "John Midelton" and his son "Ensworth Midelton". About 1752, Robert Woods married Elizabeth Middleton, the daughter of John Middleton Sr. and Margaret (Ainsworth) Middleton. Robert Woods is listed in the Lunenburg County, Virginia marriage records as the "surety" in the August, 1752 marriage of his brother-in-law, John Middleton (Jr.) to Martha Wachup, spinster. In 1757 Robert Woods was a witness to the Lunenburg County will of James Caldwell. On January 23, 1760 he was the "surety" in the Lunenberg County marriage of George Caldwell and Isbell Davis. In the October 23, 1764 will of John Middleton Jr. which was recorded in Charolotte County, Virginia Will Book 1 Page 4, on August 4, 1766, and names wife, Martha, and sons, John, James, Samuel and Robert; Robert Woods and Thomas Moore were named executors and Ainsworth Middleton and Jean Middleton were witnesses. Robert Woods next appears on February 23, 1770 when he took the oath as a captain in the Pittsylvania County, Virginia militia. On September 27, 1775, the Pittsylvania County Committee of Safety nominated him as captain of the militia "agreeable to the ordinance of the convention." He is listed among the persons who took the oath of allegiance before Edmund Lyne on August 30, 1777. In August 1779, he was recommended to Governor Thomas Jefferson as "a proper person to serve in the Commission of the Peace" for Henry County, Virginia. He and William Tunstall were allowed fifteen shillings each "for assessing the Commrs Lands in the North Battalion." In March 1782, Robert Woods was "allowed pay for 15 days pasturage for 66 beeves, and 36 forages and 45 diets for horses." When Captain Heard marched to join General Sumner in North Carolina, Robert supplied 35 diets and forage for 34 horses. In addition to compensation for these items, he was allowed pay for 160 pounds of fresh pork, 43 pounds of bacon and 3 bushels of oats furnished to the hospital at the Henry County Courthouse, in March 1781. Robert Woods became the first sheriff of Franklin County in 1786 and served until August 1787. An execution was issued against him for failure to collect taxes for the year 1786. On October 15, 1788, he petitioned for relief from the execution stating that "The Burden of the said tax on the poor inhabitants of the county and the amazing Scarcity of money were responsible for the default." In the closing years of the 18th century, most eyes were turned westward. Robert was no exception. The Act of December 9, 1791, to establish several new ferries across the New and Ohio Rivers refers to "the land of Robert Woods on Fishing Creek in the County of Ohio," which is now in West Virginia. Following the Revolutionary War, Robert Woods continued to provide food for the Militia. On June 4, 1792, he signed a paper acknowledging himself bound to Governor Henry Lee in the sum of 1000 pounds in connection with "contracts to furnish such of the volunteer Militia now in the County of Ohio or who may be hereafter stationed in the County ... each Ration to consist of one pound of beef or three quarters of a pound of pork, one pound of Bread or Flour, Half a Gill of Rum, Brandy, or Whiskey, and one quart of salt to every hundred rations: the price of a ration to be Eight Cents." Robert died in 1811 at the age of 91. Children of Robert Woods and Elizabeth Middleton are: Robert T. Woods, Jr., born about 1755. George Woods, died in Patrick Co., Virginia; married Fanny Mason February 17, 1778 in Henry Co., Virginia. Hugh Woods, died Bef. 1805 in Franklin Co., Virginia; married Sarah Ann George August 5, 1779 in Henry Co., Virginia. Isabella Woods, born about 1760 in Charlotte Co., Virginia; died November 28, 1805 in Franklin Co., Virginia; married John Dickenson, Sr. June 2, 1781 in Henry Co., Virginia. John Woods, born 1760; died about 1808; married (1) Lucy Hawkins April 10, 1782 in Henry Co., Virginia; married (2) Agnes Anne Hairston October 12, 1792 in Franklin Co., Virginia. Josiah Woods, born 1762; married Sarah Cotton Hill. Elizabeth Woods, married Francis Hill February 24, 1796 in Franklin Co., Virginia. Middleton Woods, born about 1765 in Franklin Co., Virginia; died March 1807 in Wilkes Co., Georgia; married Martha Harper. Margaret "Peggy" Woods, died in Georgia; married Hugh Martin about 1780. Sarah Woods. Again, Robert's father is SUPPOSEDLY James Woods (he is the son of John and Elizabeth Woods of Meath County Ireland, and one oif the brothers who came with Michael of Blair Park) I have no idea as to Mary (his wife's) last name. Nor do intend to open the Elizabeth Woods or Elizabeth Worsop dialogue. Anyway, I hope this helps someone. And, by the way, if anyone runs across HENRY J. WOODS born in NC in 1825, please let me know as I'm reasonably sure he was my great-great-grandfather. I would appreciate any help identifying his parents. Brett F. Woods Santa Fe, NM

I think it was a grand idea to have a roll call because I have not been a participant very long and have been eager to catch up on finding a way to scale my brick wall--Aristarchus Wood(S) who lived in Maryland in Frederick Co. in 1771. I along with a whole bunch of folks would like to find his parents and any siblings that he may have had. He was in Revolutionary War in a Maryland unit. He moved to Georgia in 1784 and died there in Greene Co. in 1794. His wife was Hannah ? and their children were James, Jane,Susannah, Aristarchus Jr., Sally, Patty, Mary,John,and Charles. Aristarchus Sr. may have been born in Pennsylvania or Maryland. Any one out there have this unusual name in their lists? Hope So. Wayne Woods rwwoods@bellsouth.net

Hi all, The "Roll Call" is a great idea, however, lets make the SUBJECT count by following the guidelines. Every "SUBJECT" should have a name, event, place, and date even if it is vague, for example: Subject: Re: [WOODS-L] Roll Call - William W. Woods bef 1850 Orange Co., NC Subject: [WOODS-L] roll call - DAVID WOOD 1815 KY > FAMILY TO TX Subject: [WOODS-L] Roll Call - William W.

Zebedee WOOD (1745-1824) was the son of John and Sarah (Clemons) Wood of MA and NJ. He was married to Mary CARSON in NJ and they eventually settled in Randolph County, NC. Zebedee Wood left his estate to his wife, in the form of a life estate, to be divided among his children after the death of his wife, which occured in 1831. Do any subscribers have a copy of the division of the estate following the death of Zebedee Wood's widow, Mary (Carson) Wood? I'm not sure if a copy would be found in THE ANCESTORS OF LAWRENCE A.

Does it seem unreasonable to anyone else that posting names without any other information (like dates and locations) is a waste of everybody's time? First I stopped looking in my files. Second I stopped reading them. Now I'm asking people to please think the posting out before sending it.

I wish to contact "Mary" ??? who left the above title in the FTM online query. I find the email address left by poster of the info, does not let me connect via e-mail. Or my program may be "out of order". It refers to Hezekiah WOOD who wed Patsey GENTRY 1july1799. in Albemarle County Virginia. Mary, oh Mary!!! Contact me please. Jim Adams
