Re: John Woodworths from NB or Nova Scotia, Canada

acorn3102 — 2012-02-11 16:40:45Z

Joseph W. Woodworth born 1815, (married Ann Clark 7 Nov 1843) was the father of John Beatty Woodworth, born 1845. Joseph Woodworth, b 29 Dec 1795, (married Phoebe Dowling 26 Aug 1827) was the father of John Wesley Woodworth, b. about 1836. Joseph W. was the nephew of Joseph and Phoebe, his father John being Joseph's brother. There are a lot of Josephs in this line, so it can be confusing. For reference, John is #313 in Jeanette Behan's book, Joseph is #314 and Joseph W. is #774. If you would like more info, just post back.

Re: John Woodworths from NB or Nova Scotia, Canada

1_lewil — 2012-02-07 23:35:31Z

hello,
Not sure if you are still reviewing posts regarding John B.
I am a descendant of Everett P Woodworth b. 1880, son of John B Woodworth, b 1845, son of Joseph Woodworth, b 1815.

Is the 1815 Joseph the Joseph "W" that's often referred to?

Though I've sorted out some information, I notice there's still a fair bit of confusion over the two Johns (John B and John W (b. 1835), who both have Fathers named Joseph Woodworth. These families appear right next to each other in the 1851 census, so assume they might have lived next to each other, and be in some way related?

Any info that anyone can share to help me sort this out would be most welcome.

Any information

Re: Walter's will, b. abt 1612

The Woodworth genealogy web page has Walter's will on the top page. The site also has lots of information on the "Resources" page. See
http://www.woodworth-ancestors.com
A sampling of resources includes Jeanette Behan's newsletters, and some free downloadable books on Woodworths.

And, if you haven't already, I recommend subscribing to the Rootsweb Woodworth genealogy group.

Walter (b abt 1612) Children

happygoeslucky — 2011-12-31 21:12:11Z

I have spent the past couple of days pouring over the Vital statistics of Scituate , Mass. I am amazed to only find 2 of walter's children in the birth records.According to most online genealogies it appears to be common thought that he had 10 children. I'm wondering where the source material comes from for these other children. Admittedly I have just restarted my research on this line and may have missed a great deal of the discussion on this site. I also have not seen his will, which probably names several of these children. That said I still find it very odd that 8 of his 10 children do not show up in the birth records from Scituate. Any thoughts or help appreciated.

Walter's will, b. abt 1612

happygoeslucky — 2011-12-31 20:47:41Z

It's been a while since I have worked on my Woodowrth line. I am wondering if anyone has a copy of or knows of a transcription of Walter Woodworth's will.

Charlotte Woodworth, daughter of Eleazer Woodworth and Mary Chute, Nova Scotia

slay — 2011-10-05 03:50:29Z

A search of public family trees at ancestry.com finds two distinct lines for Charlotte Woodworth, born in Nova Scotia, the daughter of Eleazer Woodworth and Mary Chute. Some show her born in 1791 and married to Henry Graves in Onondaga, N.Y. Others show her born in 1794 and married to John Newcomb Sanford in Nova Scotia. All trace Eleazer Woodworth back to Benjamin Woodworth of Scituate, Mass. But which is the correct birth year and spouse for Charlotte, or was she married twice or were there two Charlottes? My wife can trace her ancestry to the Charlotte Woodworth/Henry Graves marriage, but where does she go from there? Can anyone offer me an answer?

I married a Woodworth almost 35 years ago and I have heard all kinds of stories. I know there is a Charlie Woodworth in the family. Charlie was the father of the bunch I know. We have a Charles Woodworth that lives in Columbus, TX. If I knew how I would send you a picture of him so you could compare what you know. The ones that would know everything has passed away. Look forward to chatting back and forth.

I am seeking any and all information on my Great Great Grandfather. He married my G. G. Grandmother, Lucinda Collis

His parents were:Charley (or it could be Chancy) and his mother's name is listed as Alice.I have a photo copy from the records but it does not give any clear information. No birthdates from either party. this has been a dead end for my family and we really hope someone out there is able to connect with us.

Woodworth Family pictures

jenklow — 2011-03-13 02:16:10Z

Today I was in an antique mall in Kennesaw, Georgia. Someone in there had some old pictures, so I started looking through them to see if any had names on them. There were a couple who had names on the backs of them. One is Daisy Woodworth and the other said it was Josephine Obermyer, daughter of Annie Woodworth. I took pictures of these with my camera phone. I would be more than happy to send them to any of you who would want them. I just wish someone would find pictures of my family and do the same! So if you want them, email me, and I will send them to you!

George Woodworth 1899-1933 , brother Edward 1900- Nebraska

zaeppley — 2011-01-05 20:36:57Z

I'm trying to find George Woodworth, b. 1899 in either Scotia or Grand Island NE. He served in WWI, fought at Mihiel and Argonne. He worked as a telegraph operator in Grand Island in 1919 and I lose him after that. Does anyone have him in their tree?

I'm also looking for his brother Edward b. 1900 in Grand Island, NE. I last find him there in the 1910 census. Does anyone know if this is the same Edward Woodworth who died in Gridley, CA in 1981? The obit doesn't give info on his origins.

Their descent is father Silas Elford Woodworth 1859-1908>Byron Woodworth 1828-1888>Norman Woodworth 1799-1880>?

Thanks and happy hunting

I'm looking for information about Woodworths in the Erie county area of PA in the early 1800's. The 1820 census shows Lemuel Woodworth living in Fairview Twp. I believe him to be the father of a Merrick Woodworth, born in Girard Twp abt 1820. Girard Twp didn't exist until 1832, and was formed from Fairview, Elk Creek and SPringfield Twp's.

My grandmother was Minnie T. Woodworth of Washington D.C. born in 1893 to Joseph Almnond Woodworth and Susan E. Waugh. The line goes back to Walter Woodworth who came from Kent County England and settled in Scituate, MA. in 1635. He was assigned the third lot on Kent St. Walter had 10 children and died in 1685.

Re: Canadian Woodworth's

AndrewWoodworth — 2010-11-04 15:42:35Z

I have a Joseph Angus Woodworth in my tree. I don't have a birthdate or spouse for him, but his parents were married in 1798 which likely excludes him as the father of your Joseph. There were not many Woodworth's in Nova Scotia at that time and most descended from Joseph Angus Woodworth's father, William Woodworth.

Re: WOODWORTH & IRELAND Surnames

rddavis30 — 2010-08-12 02:25:16Z

I'm sorry, but this is one where I don't have my own original sources. I'll share what I have. Samuel Halstead appears to have been born 18 April 1776 in Dutches, Fishkill, New York. He and Phebe Woodworth were married about 1794 in New York. He died 2 Oct 1851 in Sedyard Town Cayuga.

Phebe's was born 16 July 1781, Fulton County, New York Married about 1794 and died Sept 1856. Note they were about 13 and 18 at marriage, assuming the date is correct.
I believe I got this from the Ancestry World Family Tree Project, Whitley. That work appears to have been well done. Sorry, but I think I found this before becoming more careful about citations. Hope it is helpful in some way.

For what it's worth, a Phebe Woodworth married Samuel Halstead. She was apparently born 1781, died 1856 both in Fulton County New York.

Info on ElecTA (not ElecTRA) Evans comes from 3 places: 1-"The Woodworth Family of America" (1988) book by Jeanette Woodworth Behan, pgs. 242-243; 2-daughter Electa Permelia Woodworth's Bible, belonging to a relative in Garvin, MI; 3-death cert. of son Ansel Woodworth which gives mother Electa's name as Electa EVANS Woodworth. Several researchers have been unable to discover Electa Evans' parents. Electa Evans was b NY 10 Nov 1798 (no specific birthplace known), marr by Elder Coley, Whitestown, Oneida Co., NY on 15 June 1815 to Hosea Woodworth (not Phelps), died Manlius, Bureau Co., IL on 26 Feb 1881 - bur in cem near my home.

Re: Woodworth & Wadswoth

MarvinWoodworth — 2010-07-05 20:41:28Z

There is no connection that I can find, unless it occurred prior to 1630 or so. No DNA yet suggests a connection; however, perhaps DNA testing of variations of the Woodworth/Wadsworth spellings will come up with matches across surnames someday. The most probable origin of the Woodworth spelling came as a variation from Woodward as a means of ddistinguishing Walter's family fron other Woodwards in towns (Scituate and Lebanon) packed with Woodwards.
