    1. [WOODS-L] Woods Family - Christian County KY [c1800]
    2. Brett F. Woods
    3. Looking for information on the following Woods family members who lived in early Christian County KY. They are of record of receiving the following land grants. Note that a number of these individuals received subsequent grants. The date indicated corresponds with their first grant. Robert Woods (11-10-1798) Bartholomew Woods (12-27-1798) John Woods (4-6-1799) Henry M. Woods (4-8-1799) Sally Woods (7-26-1803) Thomas Woods (2-28-1807) Kentucky received statehood in 1792 and the 1800 Christian Census enumerates only Bartholomew (from an early tax list) with no additional information. The 1810 Census enumerates: Henry Woods (born before 1765) David Woods (born between 1765-1784) Isham F. Woods (born between 1765-1784) Thomas Woods (born before 1765) Jessy Woods (born between 1784-1794) It should be noted that it is conceivable that Bartholomew (and perhaps his father?) earlier received the following North Carolina Land Grants in TN: #204 Bartholomew Woods, 1782 Washington Co, 558 acres "on the waters of Big Limestone Creek." #435 Bartholomew Woods, Jr., 1783 Washington Co, 200 acres "on the waters of the Little Nolechuky River." I would appreciate any information or comments indicating from where, or from whom, this family might have descended. Thanks for any assistance. Brett F. Woods Santa Fe, New Mexico
