Nyla, I had a printout of one of your archived messages dated 20 May 2003, because it had a Woolwine in the lineage. I have found some additional information to your Thomas Jefferson Woolwine, married to Nora Lelia Lively. I know this is incidental to your line, but appreciate your information and thought you might like some more. 1900 Census, Fayetteville, Fayette County, ED #12, image 45 of 97 HH 386/390 Woolwine, James born Jan (blank) age 34 married 14 years Eliza J born Jul 1865 age 34 age 34 married 14 years Luddie W born Feb 1887 age 13 Thomas J born Nov 1889 age 10 Rebecca L born Oct 1893 age 6 Howard C born Mar 1896 age 4 Lacy G born Oct 1898 age 1 West Virginia Marriage Records 1863-1900 list James L Woolwine and Eliza J Davis, 11 Nov 1885, Fayette County Fayette County Births lists Thomas J born 11/11/1890, as opposed to 1889 on Census. I believe James Levi is in the 1880 Census as son of Ben J and Elizabeth A Woolwine (1880 Census Fayetteville, district 27, image 34, HH 310, 7 children). He had a sister Rebecca J whom I believe married a Charles Williams on 14 Aug 1885 in Fayette County. Also a brother, Andrew J whom I suspect is Andrew Jackson Woolwine who married Eliza Tyree 30 Apr 1899. Another brother John H I have found no more information on, but would like to. He could be the one I am looking for. I have found Ben and Elizabeth in the 1900 Census with two more children born in 1882 and 1885. Still looking for our William Birt Woolwine's parents. His Raleigh County marriage record to Macie Marie Aliff (16 Dec 1914) lists Monroe as his birth county. Checked the 1900 and 1910 Censuses for all of Monroe with no definitive information; many pages had unreadable parts. Birt's tombstone lists his birth as 3 Apr 1890. The typing of all of this gives me some perspective, as well as a record better than my notes! Hope this information helps somebody, and if anybody has any more information I would certainly appreciate it. Sincerely, Anita Hill
