Sandy, The comment below from my previous e-mail refers to a George probably two generations farther along than George who married Norah. I'm not sure in rereading what I wrote that that distance in time was entirely clear. > Dorman also has an entry on p. 710 of a George, son of John son of Edward, > who is "perhaps the George of Granville Co., N.C., who left will 6 March > 1765-Nov. 1766, married Mary ____."

Hey, Quenci, I, too, think this seems "likely," but I'll add the proviso that the records of Brunswick, Greensville and Southampton counties really need to be researched. As far as I can tell, they haven't been. I keep meaning to order films from the Library of Virginia, but it seems my good intentions keep getting way-laid. There are wills and deeds and court records that should better document this branch, and may well answer questions concerning how it fits into the earlier picture. I don't think I'd en

Does anyone have this? I know it's problematical, but it seems as if there are some (2?) wills for George (son of John III). Sandy--what do you have?

6. [WOODLIEF] Thomas Woodlief, father of Devereaux J. Woodlief [1]
All: Re: Chart by Woodlief Thomas, Jr. Who was the father of Thomas Woodlief, and grandfather to Devereaux J. Woodlief? I am trying to determine if Thomas (26) is the father of D.J. and if Maj. Peter (25) was brother to Thomas. Does my g-g-g grandfather Thomas Woodlief, who last married Elizabeth Claiborne, come from the line of Peter (13)// I don't have information on all of the lines as many of you, and would appreciate your help. Sincerely, Quenci Scott

I would like to see the chart you mention, please. I descend from Irby Epps whoe's father was a Francis Epps and they had a son named Woodlief, and Irby named a son Woody.

Ann, I don't have a LWT for the George who md Norah, let alone two.Have you got a one? Or two? In all these years I've yet to figure out why it's believed that the Woodliefs on Eaton's Granville Co muster roll belonged to George & Norah. If you, Woody, or anyone else knows what serves as evidence of that connection, I'd be grateful if you'd post it. -Sandy On Wed, Apr 1, 2009 at 9:39 PM, Ann Woodlief wrote: > Does anyone have this?

Hi Woody, Thanks. The George in NC with wife Mary, was believed by Elizabeth Ann Kerman to be one of the 4 Woodliefs of Eaton's muster roll and a son of George + Norah. I this was the George on the muster roll, but beyond that..... my research doesn't provide enough for much speculation. This is the abstract of this George's LWT: LWT of George Woodlief of Granville Co, abstracted by Timothy Rackley from the original will, not the record-book copy: GEORGE WOODLIEF planter of Granville County, North Caroli
11. Re: [WOODLIEF] On the matter of George and Norah Woodlief [1]
Woody & Ann, I think my last message fell short of clear, and I'm sorry. I believe this is one of those LWTs for which we have a reference but the LWT isn't extant, hence we have no LWT. Ann, this is the LWT you went hunting for at LVa, remember? Elizabeth Kerman references the 1743 will of George as being the George who md Norah, whom she concludes were the parents of all 4 Woodlief men listed in John Glover's Co. in the 1754 muster roll taken in 1754 in Granville Co. of Col. Wm Eaton's militia. I'll have

13. Re: [WOODLIEF] Woodlief Family - error correction [1]
I goofed yesterday! I subtracted 12 years from the death date of the wrong Edward. Here is the correcetd paragraph: Now, to add a little confusion into the matter of Thomas Woodlief, we turn to the will of Edward Woodlief, Jr., written 16 July 1759. (Edward, Jr. was mentioned in his father's will (proved 1719).) Edward, Jr., bequeathed to "Edward Woodlief son of Thomas Woodlief one negro ... [and] one small gun ..." Who was this Thomas Woodlief? Clearly not the Thomas who married Martha T
14. Re: [WOODLIEF] On the matter of George and Norah Woodlief [1]
Woody, First, thanks for the updated descendants chart. Regarding Dorman and resignations..... I agree that gaps in extant records likely preclude a full picture of the entire Woodlief family, but that said, I don't want to become "resigned" to anything. :-) John Dorman seems to have done a very good job, and mostly I like his candor in expressing uncertainty. Dorman's task was a very large one, tackling a great many Virginia families. This isn't the same as deeper research focused on one particular lin

Listers, Passing along a web site which might prove useful in your research. I'll leave it to each person to assess the validity of it and how much weight you want to give the various articles on it. From what I've read, it seems to be pretty good, but just as is the case with any research, one source is never good.... always consult multiple sources for everything. Most libraries, or at least ones of any size, have access to databases such as Jstor which contains articles from many different publications
