Woollard Family Of Virginia, Kentucky And Tennessee Since 1650

The central figure of this family saga is Isaac Woollard who lived in Western Kentucky for about thirty years (from c1775 to c1810). He was descended from English ancestors who had arrived in Virginia in 1650 and settled in a part of the colony known as the Northern Neck, which was a small peninsula of land lying between the Rappahannock and Potomac rivers as they flowed southward into the Chesapeake Bay. After a century of residence in that part of the Neck that later became Richmond County (where Woollards still reside), the father of Isaac -William - migrated to newly created Loudoun County (1757) in the northwestward extension of the Neck. From Loudoun County, son Isaac moved on to the Kentucky territory and over time, his sons dispersed to form new lines in Tennessee, Indiana, and Illinois; the particular focus of this research is the family line that was established in Tennessee. Additional research about a related family is included in the book by the same authors, Mathis - Carlton - Shelley of Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee Since 1618: And Allied American Families (2016)
