Whitaker > When I started this Woolsey family "documentation" about three years ago (this October) I stated that I thought that there was a great deal of material "out there" if we could only find it. As more and more Woolsey descendants are getting in touch with me, we are able to "document" more and more of the Woolsey family. I am in a very exciting position because I am able to hear from all of you and then am able to put it together in a reasonable form. However, I won't be working on this family indefinitely. I'm already one year over what I had originally planned on. Maybe one more year!! Right now I'm working with an individual on the Woolseys in Bedford, Westchester Co, NY and have been able to clear up several problems. I'll share that with you once I have his permission.
