Parents:

Lucy Thomas^1,2,3,4

• Birth: circa 1809; VA⁴
• Death*: before 15 October 1870⁶

Parents:

Wesley Thomas Woody^{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}

• Note*: Direct evidence identifying the parents of Wesley Thomas Woody has not been discovered. Based on circumstantial evidence, Charles Owen, one of the most thorough researchers of this line, assumed that Wesley was the son of James & Selety Walters Woody. James was the youngest son of James & Lucy Woody. Since Charles made this assumption, more circumstantial evidence has been discovered. Added to Charles' evidence, this new evidence leads us to assume that Wesley was the son of Pleasant & Permelia Walters Woody. Pleasant was the son of Thomas & Sally Carter Woody & grandson of the above mentioned James & Lucy Woody. We also assume that Wesley did not live with his father after the death of his mother about 1830. He probably lived with his maternal grandparents, Archibald & Catherine Stamps Walters. The 1830 census for Archibald supports this assumption.
  The most compelling evidence supporting this new assumption is as follows: James & Selety Woody had a son named Thomas, born c 1834. Thomas was enumerated with his parents in the 1850-1870 Warren Co., Ky censuses (it would be very unusual to name two surviving sons Thomas).
  Census enumerations & birth/death records indicate that Wesley and his wife, Elizabeth Nancy Oliver, essentially followed the traditional naming patterns of the period. Their 1st son was William Y. Woody. The "Y" was most likely for Yancey Oliver, the father of Elizabeth. Their 1st daughter was Judith Lea, named for the mother of Elizabeth, Judith Lea Walters. Their 2nd daughter war Permelia, the name of Pleasant Woody's wife. The 2nd & 3rd sons were John Wesley & Pleasant Philmore. In 1847, Iverson B. Walters, the brother of Permelia Walters (deceased wife of Pleasant Woody) was appointed guardian for minor Westley T. Woody (Wesley was married about a month later, so he probably needed a legal guardian for his marriage bond). Wesley & Pleasant Woody were enumerated living on adjacent properties in the 1860 Logan Co., KY census. There are several more minor facts that connect Pleasant & Wesley.

John Woody^1,2,3,4,5

• Name Variation: John Wooddy⁴
• Marriage*: Principal=Ann ?⁵
• Birth*: circa 1759; VA; Bith date estimate based on John being 21 when he purchased land in 1785. If he was at least 21 when the 1780 deed was made, he would have been born before 1759. The sale of this land in 1801 seems to imply that, contrary to the deed abstract, John received this land as a gift from James, so John may have been somewhat under 21. Although a minor could not legally own land, such sales were sometimes made. The 1830 Georgetown, SC census age of 50/60 would put John's birth between 1770-1780; however, this census listing is a clerk's copy of the original record and could have been incorrectly transcribed. The 1759 birth date implies that John was the son of earilier marriage of James Woody to an unknown wife. It also implies that James was born before c 1740.^6,7,2

Being part of a land grant to Nathaniel Ayres dated 1769. Adjoining George Carter & Threastier?. Wit: James Woody, Allen Stokes & Bemon Williams. Rec: Apr 18, 1780. (DLW Note: #1500 was an extremely large sum of money to pay for 239 acres at that time. We feel that the 1500 or the 239 must be a transcription error, probably the 1500. John Woody seems to have paid land tax on 1000 acres in 1782. John later sold this tract, along with two others totaling 750 acres, to his father James for #375.)⁹

(DLW note; Pittsylvania Deed records James woody, son of James, imply that, if James was 21 when he purchased, he would have been born1764 or earlier. So perhaps, the 1830 alphabetized copy of the original 1830 census document was mistranscribed by 10 years.)²
