David Woods - Jonathan Woods family - New York
I am trying to get any kind of help with my Woods family – confirmation, comments, additions, etc. I have been working on this family for many years trying to get enough information from the internet and family letters. I finally feel like I have enough little bits of evidence to put them all together. I still have lots of questions and am unsure about many of the people. So, they are only tied together with 'duct tape and chewing gum' right now. I am pretty confident that the line James Lawrence Woods - Jonathan Lee Woods- David Woods is correct.Their siblings are all 'if'y and some have been placed while others still float around until I can find the real place to put them.
I have only been able to get back to David Woods. Some references say he was from Vermont while others list the family coming from Ireland. Whether he was the one from Ireland or one of his forefathers, I don't know. I do know that he moved a lot! I found him in Madison, NY practicing law with his son Jonathan around 1818. He left to return to Salem, NY in the early 1820s. He also was living with his son William in the 1830s and 1840s (got this from the letters). There was also mention of him being in Cortland and Lockport, NY.
I would love to hear any comments. I really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Kathy
