I have previously written about my 2nd great-grandmother, Mary Jane Woody, and her father, William Woody, who died serving in the Confederacy in May 1862.
The Woody line has been thoroughly researched and documented by Dave Woody who has assembled his data (and that of others) on his website, Woody Family Roots. If you have Woody ancestry, it is well worth your time to visit his site.
My Woody line is as follows:
Mary Jane Woody, my great-great-grandmother, was the daughter of
William M. Woody (married to Marginia Thomas) who was the son of
Josiah Woody (married to Marjorie Wilson) who was the son of
Wyatt Woody (married to Mary Robertson) who was the son of
Henry Woody (married to Susannah Martin).
Henry fought in the Revolutionary War from Virginia and has several descendants who have obtained membership in the Daughters of the American Revolution. I hope to be able to do that one day if I can overcome the hurdle of my grandpa Lee's name change.
If you have any Woody connections to Mitchell and Yancey counties in North Carolina, I would appreciate sharing information. Please contact me using the yellow contact button to the left of this blog.

ReplyDeleteI am the great grandson of George Washington Woody who was born in Wilkesboro, NC, in 1866 and died in Clay County, WV, in 1954. Based on SS application made by my great grandfather his father was John Woody and his mother was Mariah Angelina Adams, both born in NC. There is a couple of John Woody's that lived in western NC during this time, but my research hasn't been able to successfully establish an ancestral relationship. Looking for information on a John Woody that lived in or near Wilkesboro in 1866 married to Mariah Adams.
