Looking for marriage record of Edward C Womack, b. 9 Nov. 1841, Winn Parish, La, d. 8 Aug 1912, Brown County, Texas and Sarah A Jordan. They married probably about 1863 in Winn Parish, Louisiana. However, I have no proof of this. Edward C Womack is son of Jesse W Womack and grandson of David Womack of Gadsden County Florida. Daughter Martha Ella WOMACK Kirksey was born February 11, 1864.
Military records and pension application indicate that Edward was serving in the Confederate Army during this period.
Louisiana Confederate Soldier Database - "Womack, Edward C.,Pvt. Co. C, 12th La. Inf. En. Aug. 18, 1861, Camp Moore, La. Roll to Oct. 31, 1861, Discharged Oct. 7, 1861, at Columbus, Ky."
From Spring of 1862 to the close of the war Edward served with Waller's 13th Texas Cavalry Battalion in Texas and Lousiana. Listed as Private E.C. Womack, later promoted to Sgt.
Possibly took a furlough to marry Sarah, but haven't yet found any record of this or of the date of their marriage.
Would like some confirmation that Ella was his blood offspring and not adopted later after the war.
Thanks,
Randall Merriott (gg grandson of Martha Ella)

I had posted I think twice before about my ggg/grandparents Kinchen Griffin and Ferebe WOMACK who were married in 1817 in Wake county N.C.(at the time of the post I was trying to prove if they were indeed my ancestors and my relation to the WOMACK line. Well several weeks back I proved that these people were indeed my ancestoral grandparents and that Albridgton WOMACK would be another ancestoral grandparent. I guess "this is a little success story" but now I am intrigued by the WOMACK heritage and want to find out all I can about my ancestors. Thanks for letting me share.
Warmest regards,
Jerry L Griffin
Thx Sam and Jack

I can truthfully say you have been more truthful and giving here on WGN than any I have seen in years - Keep up the good work - but after 32 years of Womack research ( or was that 33??) I am tired - time someone took over my reins and those of others ---
DERRELL
You can rest assured others have read your postings. I for one found some interesting reading in there, may not have been exactly in my line but interesting because I study all lines and record a lot of information I find in the post for future reference. I have an inkling that we are all descendants of one early Colonial progenitor so I always find something useful to store in my databases that will help someone in their quest. ERIN DENT'S post are refreshing and a lot of info in there I didn't have, so you guys post away, trust me, they will be read. Sure a lot of us are in a group that trade info by e mail but by posting somebody else gets in the loop. To all my cousins who hesitate to post I say post what you can and often as you can, we need the input. Personally I enjoy helping others with what little I have.

Good Morning:
Well I can tell we are all Womacks - sensitive, straightfoward, to say the least, and always trying to help or get some help...hehe
Come on you guys, I'm new here - Sam lead me to his website and I love it. I wish I had more info to give, but unfortunately, like I said, I'm new to this and most the information I have you all already have - but if I ever did come across something I thought would be interesting I would post it - regardless if it might be a repeat or not - like Jack said, sometimes a little reminder is great, especially without going back into the archives. Those of you who have been doing this for a while pretty much have this information memorized, why? Because you have had it repeated over and over, and have done most of the research, but new ones like me are still learning all of the information that you have known for years...Sam, don't stop posting - you have a lot of interesting things - and Jack you appear to be very well documented as well...I have gone back into the archives and personally it was overwhelming how much information there was - in fact I have gone back several times and reviewed things, so I welcome when someone posts a new message with some of the old stuff - it helps me a lot to get more comfortable with all the names and dates of who and where and when...
Keep up the good work - and someday I hope to be able to chime in and give some new information that may you all have gotten yet...
Sandi
I have had ppl not tell me they got my info. or read my post That reminds me I wonder if they did get it.Any how have a good day all
Jack
Message received - however, I do not believe my last post about the misnomer on my 4th great, of whom I have extolled the mistake numerous times, should have caused any great holding back from anyone I would have welcomed an answer from Michael on that one and the fact that I also stated it was great we had someone in England that could add to the research --
Constructive critism is ok - but too often loosely defined -- Yes, I do criticize people who dont post even the miniscule bit of info they may have -
That is constructive also -
I do also criticize those to whom I send info outside WGN, after getting their query off WGN, and never get a response saying they got the info; or if it even helped at all --
But, also, if anyone has a problem with me - they they should have the intestinal fortitude to come direct to me and say so - not second hand from someone else -
I am sorry some people believe the way they do about posting info - afraid of what I will say?? Nice excuse - but no kewpie doll...
So, I guess the best thing for me, WGN and everyone else is to stay outta the way and keep off and not try to do anything here or for anyone on the side.
Some people are too sensitive; not to say cant read between the lines very well at all!!
Sam
I sincerely hope that you can take a little constructive criticism.
Do you think the reason for the lull in postings could possibly be due to your post berating and chastising some of the exuberant people who do post? I have a cousin who is becoming an avid genealogist who will no longer post because she fears ridicule from you. She is only one of the few who feel the same way.
Posting to the board is a privilege afforded to all, whether it is a miniscule bit of information or a lengthily dialog. The post may be a repeat of information others have posted before but thats okay, some researchers never dig into the archives and a reminder helps at times. A simple obit post or a long dissertation may furnish someone the clue they need to complete a search.
We should never discourage anyone who is posting matter that pertains to genealogy or information on computer security. We all need help at times and I think the Womacks are a breed of helpful and considerate people who are mindful of others feelings. I know you have helped an untold number of people in the past but I beg of you please refrain from the caustic remarks, some are not like you or I , they are a little more sentisive.

Shake the tree a little harder - only one apple fell out -- I got to thinking I had posted something (usually when I do it gets quiet a few days) -- anyhow, thanks for the cemetery info --
Wishing everyone a happy Easter. Go to http://www.grayace.com/dex/bunny.html for a cute message. Then send the URL to your grand children they will enjoy it.

Moved February messages to the archive.
found the genealosist rating thought it was interesting
What Kind of Genealogist are You?
Not all genealogists are pursuing the same hobby. I classify genealogists into 4 general categories, with what I estimate are the percentages of genealogist who fall in each group:
COLLECTORS OF DEAD RELATIVES (25%) - These folks happily collect whatever information they find. They seldom if ever take the trouble to confirm anything from original records. They seek quantity rather than quality, are generally interested in all their ancestral lines, and as many of their lines of cousins, no matter how distant, as they can find. The Internet and the GEDCOM file have put them in hog heaven, and you can hear them enthusiastically talking about the 2,500 new cousins they added last week. They are probably the most enthusiastic genealogists, are the most willing to share their information with others, and are most likely to have their whole line available on the Internet. They are the biggest offenders when it comes to passing along errors, but collectors are also very easy to identify, and can be avoided by those who take the hobby more seriously. They actually have more fun trading ancestors with other "Collectors" anyway, and think the others take it all too seriously.
HOBBYISTS (40%) - These folks often learned about genealogy from a book or a class. They keep good records, tend to limit their research to their direct ancestors, a few surname lines, and/or cousins closer than 5th or at most 6th. They tend to put a great deal more emphasis on biographical information, photographs, and copies of certificates and documents (not because they're sources, but because they're historical mementos.) Lists of names and dates with no "meat" tend to bore them, and they're more likely, if they get such lists, to start digging into the libraries and local records to see if they can give the name a personality. For them, the family genealogy is a continuing saga of people's lives, and their pride is in piecing together the story. They record sources sometimes, but they aren't necessarily all that conscientious about it. They are not nearly as turned on by Internet web sites, but ohhh, do they love email! For them, genealogy is a social experience and email connects them with more interesting people with more interesting stories. They're also the most likely to be seen at family reunions, notebook or tape recorder in hand.
PROFESSIONALS (25%) - Most of these folks don't actually do this for a living, but they have a lot in common with the folks that do. For them, documentation is the key. Quality is all important, quantity immaterial. Unlike the hobbyists, they feel genealogy is far less social, as they're not all that impressed with oral history, in that they suspect that many of the cute and interesting stories are exaggerated and even fictional. Most of the people documented in their records have primary or at least very dependable derivative sources, or they are marked clearly as "unproven" or even "questionable". They tend to spend lots of time scouring census records, church registers, and public record offices. Like the Collectors, they are very turned on by the Internet, but unlike them, they are using it to locate new record sources in distant places where they can finally get what they need to prove that elusive connection. These folks tend to happily fit the stereotype of the genealogist at the microfilm reader in the deepest, darkest basement room in the library.
SKEPTICS (10%) - These folks aren't as visible as the other three categories. They are really not all that interested in genealogy, per se, but for other reasons, are involved in genealogy research. They might be found among adoptees or persons assisting them; members of patriotic groups like the DAR; lawyers looking for heirs or other missing folks; or historians researching events or localities. Because their quests involve things more important than just curiosity about family or the fun of a hobby, they require a much greater level of proof than even the professionals, and reject many connections that even the most diligent hobby genealogists would quickly accept. There is also a class of skeptic into which a few ex-genealogists fall ... persons who decided that most of the information available is likely to be bad, if not because of transcription errors and premature jumping to conclusions, but because of intentional hiding of the truth by the ancestors and cousins themselves, trying to cleanse history in their favor. They often quit the hobby in frustration.
While most genealogists pretty clearly fall in one of these categories, some do fall on the borderlines between them. The librarian who is really a hobbyist, but has the skill to document like a professional. The collectors who spend more time and effort documenting their direct ancestry, but lets the cousins fall where they may. The historian who gets involved in the story of a family of folks from his/her town, and ends up researching and documenting them as a separate project. Whatever type of genealogist you are, my guess is that you could place yourself pretty accurately on this continuum, and with a little thought, you could place everyone else you deal with somethere on it, too.
Okay had it wrong. I e-mailed my Aunt this morning who was up and sent me a message back quickly. Clifford was my grandfather but was not married to a womack but she was his mother and her name was Ella. His father was named Tom and spelled the last name Blankinship instead of Blankenship but changed it sometime in early 1900s. They were married in Benton, Arkansas 17 Dec 1902. She was 23 and he was 19 years old. Thats all Aunt Mary Ella new. She did not know Ella Womack's parents. Now I no why had trouble with the last name for grandparents. any info would be appreciated. thanks and god bless
Hello! I have been researching my family name BLANKENSHIP for a few years now and recently found that my grandmother's maiden name was WOMACK. My grandfather was CLIFFORD BLANKENSHIP and if the information is right her name may have been ANN.
They lived in Everton Arkansas and are burried near there. I wasn't raised by my father and have been stumped to find Clifford's parents My folks are deceased and I haven't been able to get the info from other family members and until now I haven't tried to research the WOMACK line other than possibly her father was a preacher of some sort in Arkansas. If anyone has info to share so that I may begin documenting my WOMACK line, I would appreciate. Thank you and God bless!

Well, just ignore my test there. Sorry. I am in the middle of moving the WGN site to a different domain name and in the process I am revamping the web pages, etc.
As I was going through the pages, I am sorry to say that we haven't had very many recent submissions for feature or source articles. I know folks like Sam and Roger have been posting stuff on their own web sites, and that is great. But if there is anyone out there that wants to submit articles for publication on the WGN site, please let me know. You don't have to be a web/html guru, I can help with that part.
I would also like to have a better set of links to external information. The external links we have right now are out of date and the sites don't exist anymore. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
Please email inquiries to me directly instead of the message board here.
thanks!

Major Jacob Womack WAS NOT married to Mary Wills Cole Womack
First there was no Mary Wills Cole Womack - there was a Mary Wills
whose mother Mary Whitlock Wills married John Cole in Aug 1772..
Mary was John Cole's stepdaughter -
Jacob Womack, my 4th great gramps, and a cousin to Maj Jake, married Mary Wills.
Proof of her maiden name is in her Son Danie;'s Bible record of which I have a transcript --
This misnomer has been handed down thru a lot of time; even the DAR has been duped on this one...
At this time, there is some derision whether not Maj Jake was married to a Sarah Johnson or a Martha someone -- most lean towards the Sarah ..
By the way, there are old colonial records stored in London somewhere, used to be Somerset House but were moved to a Public Records Office somewhere -- I must say tho, it is refreshing to have a Womack there that can find some time to do research and pass it along -- that has been sorely needed --
By the way can you e mail me your line back???

Hello, I am now stationed at Lakin Heath AFB in England. It is just 7 miles from the cathedral at Ely & I have been there several times checking old documents that pertain to the UK Womacks. One day I met an older gentleman, Thomas Axelander Womack, who was a Womack descendant who had done a lot of research in the Thames Public Library and had much information about the Britt Womacks. Worshams, Allens, Pucketts origins in the UK.
I only have access to the Ely Library computer an he does not do computers therefor I will have to visit him as I can and relay his information. Most of the old records in the UK are kept in the parish churches, there is not a central data base that I know of and everything is hard to decipher from records five hundred years old. The parish custodians are very choosy about letting anyone handle the old books. The next time I go to Ely I will question Thomas about his information and post my findings here.
My line is through Maj.Jacob and Mary Wills Cole Womack.
SSgt. Michael Womack
Sorry. I thought I was being of help. I'll Shut up now...
Ladies and Gentlemen
Notwithstanding the eagerness of some to post information here -- lets please keep the posts to a small roar - in other words, not lengthy dissertations - many of the recent posts have information that is listed either on Rogers web page or mine -- and available to anyone -- also the Womack Association Genealogy Volumes are all available here on WGN - merely remind people they are here -- check the home page out --
I think I found the Davy Crockett connetion to the Womacks. Thanks everyone!

WOMACK-YANCEY-DAVIS-ROBERTS
There is more than one Davis-Yancey-Womack connection in VA and Caswell, CO., NC. Please read to the bottom of the page. A good story is worth repeating.
Annie Elizabeth Yancey (1821-1900) of Caswell Co., NC
Her Experience With Early Plastic Surgery
Ancestry: Annie E. Yancey, daughter of Bartlett, son of Bartlett, son of James, son of Charles, son of Charles Yancey
Annie Elizabeth Yancey was born in Caswell County, NC on June 15, 1821, and was the sixth child of Bartlett and Nancy Graves Yancey. During her early childhood she suffered the common diseases of children. As a young child her health was very poor, so much so that she was unable to attend school. Her entire formal training amounted to only nine months. At age seven her father passed away. This she could not understand. Annie Elizabeth was blessed with a brilliant mind, was an avid reader, and was eager to learn. It was said that she read all of her father's law books through several times. Medical books were also available to her and she read them. She was determined to learn.
The disease which haunted her for many years was diagnosed as inflammatory rheumatism. This plagued the child for quite a long period of time. Her doctor tried about every medicine available to him at that time. It was the decision of the doctor, and agreed to by the family, that the patient should be salivated. This was accomplished by giving heavy doses of calomel. Following the treatment the patient contracted what was called "Ozena". Her skin and flesh appeared to be in a stage of decay. Her condition became critical. The flesh was in such a condition that her nose dropped off. Survival seemed to be almost miraculous. Of course, loss of her nose greatly disfigured the face. As a young woman, life became almost unbearable. Often she felt the urge to walk a few yards east, sit on the stone mourner's bench, surrounded by rock walls shaded by cedars, and among those who had passed, cry over her oppressive burdens. She fully decided that she "could not go through life in that condition". When she arrived at the age to make decisions, it was agreed that she should go to a surgeon in Philadelphia for what we call today plastic surgery.
After careful study by the doctors and surgeon, she was told that they could take flesh and skin from her arm or forehead and make a nose for her. Annie Elizabeth objected to taking it from the arm on the premise that this might affect her ability to use it. The doctor then asked if she would agree for the transplant to be taken from her forehead. That seeming to be the best solution, the patient agreed. During the entire operation, she watched the procedure through a set of mirrors, and without a modern day anesthetic. Silver tubes were used to hold the nose in proper shape and to serve as nostrils.
This brought a reawakening to her. It changed her life. Happiness and contentment were again part of her. Life became meaningful. She was truly happy.
Following the death of her mother, and at age 34, Annie Elizabeth and Thomas Jefferson Womack were married. Secret aspirations became a reality. The fulfillment of love and gratitude filled her heart. She looked forward to children. Their first was a boy and they named him Bartlett Yancey for his late grandfather. Today a large portrait of the three by Roberts is on display at the home of Miss Annie Yancey Gwyn, a favorite cousin of the Womack family. By deduction and some research, the painter has been identified as William Anderson Roberts (1837-1899). He was a famous artist, a nearby neighbor, and at age 20, painted the portrait of the three in 1857. This was his third commercially painted portrait for which he was paid $60. In that portrait the lifetime scar on Mrs. Womack's forehead was almost obscured by the brush.
WILLIAM ANDERSON ROBERTS IS THE SON OF ELIJAH AND REBECCA DAVIS ROBERTS. REBECCA IS THE DAUGHTER OF OUR REV. WAR GRANDPA JOHN BOSWELL DAVIS. Is Miss Annie Yancey Gwyn online or related to any Womack searchers in this group? We'd like to contact her.
In Annie Elizabeth's adult life she assisted with community problems, assumed civic responsibilities, even the performance of marriages, especially for slaves. When doctors could not be secured she was called into service.
The Womacks had three other children - Sally Henry, Nancy and Thomas Pancoast, who was named for his father and the famous surgeon who performed the operation on his mother's nose. Today there is a large Medical Foundation and a Pancoast Surgical Procedure, both so named in memory of the famous surgeon.

Texas 1920 Census Alphabetical by County
Hello Sam and All,
Sam,I sent you an e-mail a month or so ago, you didn't respond, so I guess I'll post my info here for all. A year or so ago, I wrote you requesting info on my husband's Womack line, you were kind enough to respond and I was thrilled. We did have a difference of opinion when it came to whether or not Mary Womack born July 10, 1903 in Cave Springs, Missouri was a daughter of Archer Preston Womack and Nora Erwin Compton, as you correctly stated that there was no proof. After conversing with older family members, they told me that Mary's 'real' name was Valley Lockey Womack, a name she hated, when Valley turned 18, she just up and changed it to Mary and was forever known by that name. No legal paperwork involved, just did it. I have had many distractioons from genealogy this year, including the passing away of my Mother so I haven't been as diligent as I use to be, however, I have started back up and did run across a census page with Valley listed on it, once again, not iron clad proof, as most researchers demand, but all I got and probably all I ever will have!! The census page, if you want to look at it yourself for verification purposes:
1910 Missouri Census, Walnut Grove Township, Greene County, page 264A, Ancestry Image #34, Line 36, Household #354, Arch Preston-Head, Line 40, listed as his daughter is Valy, age 7. This is my husband's grandmother, also known as Mary Womack. I also wanted to make sure you had an updated e-mail address for me, which is AudrHorn8@aol.com, sorry, I was not aware that you still had my old one. Thank you, Audrey Horner

The Valentine Papers are available online if you have the bells and whistles membership on Ancestry.
Ann must have seen parts of them because she quotes from the often.
I think that's where all the wife beating, pig and apple stealing and horse racing information comes from on the first brood.
Derrell
Thanks for you input - have had a copy of the pages that pertian to Womacks for some years now - on a disk somewhere in the great cavern of my lousy filing system.
What we really need, since we have beaten the VA bunch to death looking for an
immigrant ancestah, is access to the Brit records on the colonies - I dont think those got burned in a courthouse fire, etc -- It is quite obvious there was some reather painstaking records keeping of births, deaths, property, etc - so Ole King whats-his-name would know who, what and how much to tax...I doubt seriously that the availabe records there are cataloged - rather in loose files somewhere in a dingy basement under inches of dust...and hopefully not too damp and moldy!
I also believe that there are many church records that have yet to be made available to everyone - those hold some truths and fiction breakers methinks..
Unless someone has something in the bottom of an old trunk they havent looked at, we are at wits end on this side of the water -- all we can do is try to link up what we have back to those we know for sure were in early VA...AND, hope for a good break somewhere in our lifetime...
So, Derrell, mi amigo - keep on diggin like you have and you just may be the one to crack this wide open...
ATTN: Sam and Roger have u two heard of The Valentine Papers if not u two might want to read them lots of info. about our Womacks in it. Information on the Womacks while in England I believe and some other important info. such as Womack orphans and such and their guardians. Will give yall info. on how to look at these records at my local library if yall need me to it will not be a problem to me just let me know.
Beth, et al
We know were two Jacob Womacks at Watauga - one one of the Commissioners, the other a signer - the only assumption we can make of this is that the signer was the son of the commissioner (Maj Jacob)... no real proof of course, strictly circumstantial, but you never know..........
I also see that the wife of Jacob is rearing an ugly head as Mary again - methinks this is where someone got the idea my Mary Wills Womack was the wife of Maj Jake, a cousin to my 4th great; and the real husband of Mary Wills -- Unfortunately the DAR has a problem with her being listed as the wife of the ole Maj....and by the way, all you people that have her as Mary Wills Cole, drop the Cole - her son David's Bible record shows her as WILLS....I have a transcript of it......Doesnt anyone think it would be rather weird for parents to name a child after the last name of the mothers former husband???
Her grandfather Josiah Whitlock did not name her in his will of Oct 1769; but did name a brother and sister or two - it mentioned her father Doctor Wills as deceased - looking at this, and the fact the census records indicate she was born between 1760 and 1770 (Kentucky indicates 1765-70); she would have been born after the will was written, her father died while she was still in the
womb, but sometime in 1769; and she had to have been born after Oct 1769-probably early 1770..then her mother, Mary Whitlock Wills, married John Cole in Aug 1772 (18 Aug on bond or certificate)..
Erin,
I saw two posts on Genforum.genealogy.com/Womack, which are of interest to most of the researchers on this web page (some folks here maintain large data bases of Womacks and collateral families). We are very much interested in the sons of Maj. Jacob Womack and Sarah Johnson. Here are the children of Jacob Womack by Patricia:
"131,26 Major Jacob and Mary Womack
1 Martha b 20 March 1758 d ca 1840 Benton Co Ala m Robert Bean b 3 May 1758
2 Sarah m ________ Lane (Son of Tidance Lane)
Patricia's note:(I am not sure if this is correct or if there us another Jacob lived on Little Limestone Creek Washington Co Tenn. Possible the father of the above or the above Major Jacob the father of Jacob on Little Limestone Creek or if they are the same person and married two or more times one wife being Sarah Johnson, dau of Joseph Johnson/Johnston of Lunenburg Co VA

4 John
5 Jesse
6 David
All above the Arkansas early inhabitants
7 William ? Pendleton SC White Co Tenn. Jeremiah, Jonathan, and David of Grainger Co Tenn. And David and Johnson of Grainger, Wh Co Tenn. Also Jenkin and Jacob of early Arkansas 1820s"
I've identified the William of Pendleton, SC (Jacob was in Pendleton Co., SC on the 1790 census) and White Co., TN and I'm adding this information because of the name "Crockett" being carried down the line. William named a son Crockett and his dau., Mary Jane Womack Robinson named her son William Crockett Robinson:

"I have Fannie Womack (my 3rd greataunt) married to Elijah David Weaver. Her father being Johnson or johnson Ashley Womak, mother unknown. Where does the Cherokee information come from? If Johnston was her father and her mother were Cherokee, then she would be only half. Anyone know of her mother then? Thanks.
Erin Dent"
Did Patricia indicate Johnson Womack was the father of Fannie Womack, who married Elijah David Weaver? This is just my opinion....I think Fannie Womack Weaver was the dau., of David Womack, who is most likely my Larkin Womack's father. Weaver researchers insist that her father was Larkin Womack. No one to date has been able to confirm with documentation of her father's name. This being the case, she named her son Larkin Weaver after her brother. My Larkin named a son David, probably for his father, named a son Jacob for his grandfather, named a son John for his uncle and named a son William for his uncle. In the "Basye Family In The United States", which I just purchased from Ebay, I found this: ".....In "Book E," at page 307, in the office of the Recorder of Deeds St. Louis Missouri, appears a deed dated and acknowledged October 27, 1815, recorded November 29, 1815, from Larkin Womack and Frances (also written elsewhere in the deed Fannie) Womack (late Frances Quick (F.13) to James Fugate, assigning all her dower interest in the estate of Jones
March 10, 2005
"David Womack, married to Elizabeth M Brisco, his father was Johnson Ashley Womack. I have that line back to the late 1500's. I can be contacted at
erindent@charter.net"
The family group sheet of Johnston Womack, wife Elizabeth submitted by Patricia to the Washington Association of Genealogists indicated Patricia thought Johnson was married to Elizabeth and she was puzzled by the age difference. But the children are David and Elizabeth Brisco's children. I think your David's name was probably David Johnson Womack or Johnson David Womack. This family group sheet can be found on LDS's IGI site
Re: your post of March 7, 2005 on this web page about your family's belief that your Womacks are related to Davy Crockett and the name David Crockett Womack.....this is certainly is possible. Davy Crockett was the son of John Wesley Crockett (son of David Crockett, Sr. and Elizabeth Hedge) and Rebecca Sullivan Hawkins. Major Jacob Womack was a committeeman on the Watauga Petition of 5 July 1776. David Crockett, Sr., and his son, William Crockett signed this petition. Davy was born in 1786 Limestone Cove, Washington Co., TN. This a note Patricia had in her research: "(I am not sure if this is correct or if there us another Jacob lived on Little Limestone Creek Washington Co Tenn. Possible the father of the above or the above Major Jacob the father of Jacob on Little Limestone Creek or if they are the same person and married two or more times one wife being Sarah Johnson, dau of Joseph Johnson/Johnston of Lunenburg Co VA)"
Is the David Crockett Womack a descendant of your David Womack or he an ancestor of your David Womack?

Hi,
I have the brand auth. and brand image that was registered by William Jefferson Womack and by his son John Seaman Womack if anyone is in this line and interested in this, too.

Hello,
My Womacks are said to be decendant from Davie Crockett. David Crockett Womack comes up through out the line, but who knows? I haven't been able to find a link. My mother's cousin is said to have documentation, but she is old and far away and very tight fisted with stuff in her later years. Anyway, if anyone has ANY information on this line, please let me know! erindent@charter.net
I recently visited the Roy Rogers Museum, which was recently relocated from Apple Valley, Ca. to Branson, MO. It's a great museum. Many family photos are on display. I was surprised at the large number of Womack photos. Like me, Roy's mother's name was Martha Womack. If you're ever in Branson, a tour is sure worth the time.
I am trying to find information about my grandmother's family and a possible Womack connection. My grandmother was from Carter County KY and her name was Lucille Jones. She always told about being a cousin of Mattie Womack who married Andrew Slye (parents of Leonard, aka Roy Rogers. I am trying to identify whether my grandmother's grandmother was a Womack.

One of the lessons we learn from history is to hopefully not repeat the mistakes that led up to wars and loss of information in the past. By not repeating those same errors, hopefully, we, as genealogist, will not repeat the same results. But every so often we need a reminder of what has happened in the past. We sometimes forget the essence of the past, the nuts and bolts of what happened, and how it happened, and how the effects of it can still be felt today. We have more tools at our disposal and are equiped with a better education than our ancestors were as a whole, this should make our generation the authors of good genealogies and not some erroneous information copied from some speculative source posted on the net.
These things have a tendency to multiply like fleas on a dog's back. Researchers of today are privy to a multitude of gedcoms to glean information from and many take advantage of borrowing and posting complete genealogies as their own without the work involved in citing the sources. The LDS, DAR and even our on Descendants of Thomas and Louvisa Rice Womack book has mistakes in them made by people like you and I.
Wars, fires, floods, lack of education and foresight makes our job a challenge that daunts us on a daily basis. I am reminded of the great tragedy of the Civil War where 622,000 of sombody's ancestors died and set brother against brother. Considering that a soldier probably had an average of four children, this war left two and a half million children fatherless and an untold number of families devastated at the loss of kin and property.
Adoptions and children being raised by relatives, widows remarrying and children being bound out didn't help any. We should as researchers of our genealogy be very cautious as to what we pass on as documented facts.
We should freely share our information, be it a small bit we discovered or helping someone with their line.
Speaking of wars, this site is just an example of what happens to the children. See Missing Identity http://www.jewishgen.org/missing-identity/
