Biography

Mary was born in 1848.[1] Mary Woods ... She passed away in 1911.[2]

Research notes

Mary L. Woods of Breckenridge County, KY (30, b. in Wayne Co., KY, both parents b. in Wayne Co., KY) was to be married at Jas. T.L. Woods (her father's house) 12 May 1878 to blacksmith D.R. Witt (43, b. Hancock Co., KY, both parents b. VA). It was her first marriage and his second.[3]

In 1850 Thomas J.L. Woods (38, farmer, b. KY) was head of household in Wayne County, KY with Charity E. Woods (26, b. KY) and Mary Woods (2, b. KY). The 2 for Mary's age could easily be mistaken for a 21 as it is in the database.

In 1860 Thomas J.L. Woods (48, wagon maker, b. KY) was head of household in Breckinridge County, KY with Charaty E. Woods (37, b. KY), Mary C. Woods (13, b. KY), Elizabeth Woods (10, b. KY), Martha J. Woods (6, b. KY), Susan Woods (4, b. KY), Jane Woods (2, b. KY), and Nancy Woods (1, b. KY).

In 1870 Thomas Woods (58, wagon maker, b. KY) was head of household in Whitesville, KY (Daviess County) with Charaty E. Woods (48, b. KY), Mary C. Woods (22, b. KY), Elizabeth Woods (20, b. KY), Martha J. Woods (15, b. KY), and Robert Woods (9, b. KY).

The 1900 census for Burleyville, KY (Breckinridge County) gives Mary's birth as Mar 1848 in Kentucky. Her marriage bond in 1878 also listed her as 30 years of age giving her birth in 1847 or 1848. The FindaGrave data base lists 1849 although the grave itself may read 1848.
