Biography

Life

Note from a letter of Eloise Neel, dated 29 Sept 1980, (she is a descendant of Lafayette Woodall) ".....Lafayette lived such an uneventful life, I know nothing about him except where he was from 1837 until 1880, and that he lost 3 sons in the Civil War. I believe he worked for the Reynolds family at Critz, Patrick Co. from 1843 or 4 on."
