Research Notes

Source information was previously added that matched Ann Nettleton who married Samuel Samuel Woodruff. The information also exists on that profile. Since the gravestone for this person states she was the widow of John Lum, the information will be removed, as well as the link to the spouse. Attached child Anne Woodruff was born 30 years before this person was born, so she will also be removed.
