Biography

There is no documentary evidence this person existed. The fictional character, Charles Augustus Womack (sometimes William Charles Augustus Womack), was created by John Warburton Womack and included in his biography in 1889 and published in the book series American Ancestry, Womack, John Warburton.The biography includes the claim that John Warburton Womack was descended from two bishops of the Church of England, William Warburton and Lawrence Womack. This theory was debunked in the early 1900s, but is still being used by some Womack historians today. For more detailed information on the errors and fabrications in this theory see John Warburton Womack Ancestry - Fraud. Shirley Dalton 18:31, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

Warning: Check the data. A parent's death date (Womack-124 died 1620) should not be more than 120 years before one of their children died (Womack-1497 died Nov 1732) . This would mean the child lived to be over 120.
