Hello John, Thank you for the greetings. I live in Houston, TX, USA. I have many John Woolsey ancestors like John 2nd, John III, there is John Sr., and John Jr., Johnny and then just John. We even have some John's that use their nickname "Jack" now I still have that one to figure out. Supposedly we decend from George Joris Woolsey who was born at Yarmouth, Isle of Wright, England. Here in Texas we have many John's but they don't add to the name or take way from it like it's Juan Cantu Gonzales or Gonzales Juan Cantu or maybe even Cantu Gonzales Juan. If you get up today and don't like you name just change it around until it suits you. I love it. So glad to have you on the list and maybe you can help us with our English Woolsey's.
