To any interested Woolsey researcher: I have over 40 individuals who have the first name Woolsey (Wolsey) or middle name Woolsey. I thought you may be interested in them and if anyone can add to any of these, it would be appreciated. Recognizing that often names were given because of respect, I think that a lot of these are descended from the Woolseys through a daughter, so that is my interest. WOOLSEY FIRST NAMES The Woolsey name has been a strong name in each family that intermarried into it. Many children have been given the first name or middle name of Woolsey. I think it is safe to say that in almost every instance, there will be Woolsey/Wolsey a little farther back in the pedigree. I haven´t been able to place the following. Any suggestions from anyone? Bacon, Rev. Leonard Woolsey md Susan Bacon Bacon, Leonard Woolsey, Jr. s/o Rev. Leonard Woolsey Bacon Barrett, Melancthon Woolsey md Annis Clark Barrett, Wolsey Melancton Upstate New York Beers, William Woolsey md Pauline M.
