James Woods 2/05/02
This Rachel Woods was 60, born in Tn and lived alone on the 1860 Wright Co., MO census. Her home was located between the family of James Cox who was 38 and born in SC and the family of Thomas and Matilda Wadkins who were born in TN. There is also the Ancel Adkins family nearby;Ancel was 25 and born in TN and his wife Lucinda was born in TN; G. A. and Sarah Smith are also nearby, Sarah was 57 and born in TN. Story in my Wadkins line was that Matilda was a Woods according to her son's death certificate, but another story is she was a Martin. Sarah Smith is possibly a sister to Rachel; Ancel Adkins' wife Lucinda is possibly a sister to Matilda. Thomas Wadkins left his family in Hamilton Co., TN, moving to MO about 1856; the Adkins family should have been in Mo for the 1850 census; the Cox family lived in Arkansas until at least 1855.
