Hello Woods Listers, I am still trying to find the answer to my question regarding Andrew Woods - 'said son' of ARCHIBALD WOODS & ISABELLA GOSS/GASS? In October 1943 the Virginia Historical Magazine published an article "Archibald Woods of Albemarle County" - time period 1783, 1787 and 24 Sept 1799. Pages 375 - 376, in a rough extract would be that a certain Archibald Woods died w/o a will in Dec. 1783 in Botetourt (Roanoke) Co., Virginia. (I have this & it is an inventory - no children named) JAMES WOODS of Fayette Co., KY (Is he a proven son? Grandson? Brother? Relative?) gave power of attny. to ANDREW WOODS for land in Botetourt 1787... Is this the same land ARCHIBALD owned? A deed 24 Sept 1799 - land in Botetourt - deed 'acknowledged' in Mercer Co., KY. Is this also ARCHIBALD's land? In 1943 and 1945 this 'said' line was still suspect & the land records had not been researched by the current Woods family experts. Folks, in the 50 some years that have elapsed has anyone in the Woods family found out if ANDREW WOODS is actually the son of ARCHIBALD & ISABELLA? If the answer is yes, then please share the documentation & make me a really happy camper - if no, then I need to be off searching the land records. Does anyone know? This could save the "said son"'s descendants untold hours or years of research. Thankyou, Patricia in Oregon
Hi, I am trying to find info on a George Washington Wood(s) that was possibly born around Choctaw or Winston County around early to mid 1800's. He was married to a "Marthie" Malone. Don't know how many children they had, but one was a George Carlisle and possibly a Jim (Male) and Mattie (Female). I have found a George Washington Wood in Winston Co. who was married to a Martha Malone, but so far their kids do not show a George Carlisle Wood(s). Does anyone have any idea's here? or know any info that may help? THanks, William R. Woods MIS Major wwoods@olemiss.edu (662) 281-0161
This is no help to you....but interesting that I have FRANCIS MARION WOOD [later FRANK M. WOOD] who married SARAH GASS/GOSS.....they are about 60 yrs after yours....just thought it was some interesting coincidence.
