Hello, Having seen abstracts of Thomas Wooten's [Wotten] will, I wanted to locate a copy my self. In the text, "Will and Administrations of Isle of Wight County, VA, 1647-1800," Book 1-3, you will find abstracts copies of the wills of (1) Thomas Wotten [Dec. 1670], p. 10, (2) Richard Wooten [May 1687], p. 26, (3) Thomas Wootten [Dec. 9, 1670], p. 68, James Councill [Feb. 1728], p. 106. These are brief and I can send you copies upon request. I have discovered that "Pioneers of Wiregrass GA", vol. 3, has a photo of Redden Wooten in the back of the book. All his descendants should take a look. Several list members have asked about the special ceremonies at the Wooten Cem. in Kimble Co., TX. These are the directions I received: "The ceremonies will be at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, July 18, at Junction, TX. The Wooten Cem. is located about 10 miles from the city limit sign on highway 377, south, from Junction. Go to the traffic light on Main Street (only one in town) and turn on hwy 377 and follow it. The cem. is near Cajac Creek, and you will see the sign. At the top of the knoll, turn right into the gate. Signs will be posted to provide additional directions. There will be luncheon following the dedication of the memorial for the cem. and the new CSA tomb for the grave of Simon Lee Wooten." It is my understanding that people are coming from other areas of TX and we are coming from FL. Those of you in the area of Kimble Co. might enjoy attending and meeting everyone, even if you cannot find a close link to the family of Joel Wooten. Simon Lee is Joel's son. I hope that these directions help answer the questions. Martha Wooten Solomon Thanks, Martha
