Biography

U.S. Southern Colonies Project logo
Lucy Womack was a Virginia colonist.

Lucy Womack was born about 1767 in Prince Edward County, Virginia. She was the daughter of Thomas Womack and Louvisa Rice. She possibly passed away after 1840 in Jackson County, Alabama.

Lucy married William Womack about 1780 in Rutherford County, North Carolina. The family was in Franklin County, Georgia from at least 1789 until 1795. They returned to Rutherford County, North Carolina by April 1795. (See Timeline on William's profile page.)

William Womack (age 45+) is on the 1800 Census in Morgan, Rutherford County, North Carolina with wife Lucy, daughter Nancy and sons Thomas, Isham, Burton, William, Abner, and Jesse. This census has an alphabetical listing and on the same list are: Abraham Wammock (age 15-26), Anderson Wammock (age 26-44), James Wammock (age 26-44), Louisa Wammock (age 45+), Abner Wammock (age 26-44), and Josiah Wammock (age 26-44).

In 1810 William and Lucy are still in Rutherford County with sons William, Abner, John, Asa, Jesse, and Levi.

After the date of the 1810 census, William and Lucy left North Carolina and settled in Marion County, Tennessee. William died before the date of the 1820 census, so he is not found.

Lucy has not been located on the census in Marion County, Tennessee or elsewhere. She may have been living with son Abner C Womack. The 1821 Church Membership List, Sweeden's Cove Primitive Baptist Church, Marion County, Tennessee includes Abner, Isabella and Lucy Womack. Abner is son of William and Lucy and Isabella Patton is his wife. They had no known daughter named Lucy, so it is possible this Lucy Womack is his mother, widow of William Womack.[1] Lucy Womack and Mary Womack are listed as Charter Members when Union Church (Sweeten's Cove), Marion County, Tennessee was organized in October 1821.[2]

Abner Womack left Tennessee for Alabama in the late 1830s; he purchased 40 acres of public land in Alabama on 1 August 1839 and is on the 1840 census in Jackson County, Alabama. In his household are two older women, one age 60-69, who may be Isabella's mother, Mary Patton, and one woman, age 70-79, who may be Lucy, Abner's mother. Although it is not certain, the age bracket is correct for Lucy who would have been about 73 at the time of the census.[3]

Her name was not necessarily Lucinda, which never appears in primary contemporary records. Lucy was not always a nickname for Lucinda, so the best we can say is that her name was Lucy.

Womack-830 and Womack-240 appear to represent the same person because: They are listed as sisters but are the same person.
