Woods family related to Whiter
24th September 2005
I hope you don't mind me writing to you but we are
researching my wife's family.
We have a birth certificate (copy attached)which shows
the birth of William Robert Woods, mother Eliza Woods nee Whiter.
We have been in contact with Marilyn Smart whose
great great grandfather was Eliza's brother John (Popplewell)
and she gave me the address of your website.
I thought you may be interested as you have
done so much research and documentation is so useful.
The beginnings of the Tree are on
genes reconnected!
