    3. To All Interested Woolsey Researchers: Carolyn Wilkerson wondered about Stephen Woolsey, so I submit the following: As to Stephen Woolsey: Caroline, I have 17 Stephen Woolseys in my data base. Six of them are from New York and needn't concern us at this time. 1. Stephen Woolsey b abt 1825 in Indiana is prob the s/o Jacob C. Woolsey of Illinois and Utah. Three of them are too late: 2. Stephen Woolsey b 1851, in UT, grandson of Jacob C. Woolsey of Illinois and Utah. 3. Stephen DeKalb Woolsey b 1845, TN s/o Wm Bonaparte Woolsey and Alice Bird. 4. Stephen Marion Woolsey b 1846, MO, s/o James Woolsey and Elizabeth T., of TN. This Stephen Marion Woolsey md a Miss _______ Brown and had a son Stephen Marion Woolsey, b 1885. The next two end up in Texas so are not part of this Missouri group. They may be one and the same person. 5. Stephen F. (M.) Woolsey b. abt 1832 md Serena Hunt 3 Dec 1862 in Hopkins County, Texas. As I look at my records, the above Stephen F. (M.) Woolsey may be the following Stephen, because his father was in Rusk County, Texas. 6. Stephen M. Woolsey b 1832 in Buncombe Co., NC, s/o Thomas Woolsey and Elizabeth Tucker and maybe #5 above..?? So I have the above 6 plus the 6 from New York for 12 Stephens. The remaining five are as follows: 1. Stephen Woolsey b abt 1817 md in Cooper Co., MO 3 Oct 1839 to Mary Polly Shirley. I don't know where he fits in. 2. Stephen Woolsey b 1813 Greene Co, TN s/o Gilbert Woolsey and Abigail (nee Woolsey). Stephen Woolsey md 1) Linda Ann (Liddy) Hubbs and md 2) Abigail Woolsey. 3. Stephen Curtis Woolsey b 1816, TN, s/o Nehemiah Woolsey and Ruth Curtis. Stephen Curtis Woolsey md in Carroll Co., MO 5 Aug 1838 Elizabeth Alcoline Canton (Caton). [Could this also be Stephen above who md Mary Polly Shirley???] 4. Stephen Madison Woolsey b 1832, TN, s/o Thomas Woolsey and Rutha Hubbs, md 1) Abigail _____ (I'm not sure of this marriage) and md 2) in Livingston Co., MO 18 Jul 1856 to Martha McClure. 7 children. 5. Stephen Marion Woolsey b 1819, TN, s/o William Woolsey and Sarah (nee Woolsey) of Greene Co., TN. Stephen Marion Woolsey md in Washington Co., TN 30 May 1843 to Rachel M. Bayless and had nine children. Disclaimer: Although I believe the above is fairly correct, I am amenable to changes that could be made to them (with adequate documentation.) Thank you for all you have done and for all you do for the Woolsey family. I don't know what I'd do without you. Sincerely, Wilford W. Whitaker
