      Donna Forney Clark:
      Although I found no documentation on any of the following, in searching to see how many children and wives that Woodson Jordan had and which children belonged to which wife, I found:

      Marieda Derrick Edens posted:
      "Nancy Derrick b1814 d-after 1853 WI. m-ab 1843 Woodson Jordan"

      http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~maudenna/f2288.htm
      Woodson Jordan and Anna had a son Wesley Vinton Jordan
      Family in 1840 consisting of 5 sons, 2 daughters, first wife Anna

      http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:3082686&id=I602427193
      Here Wesley Vinton Woodson is listed as the son of Anna.

      http://genforum.genealogy.com/jordan/messages/7593.html
      This makes sense, although there's no documentation given: Here Janet Koch says Woodson Jordan had 3 wives: Jemima, Anna, & Nancy.

      http://genforum.genealogy.com/jordan/messages/7594.html
      Here again, Janet Koch states that Wesley Vinson Jordan is the son of Woodson Jordan and Anna.
      "Wesley Vinton is the son of Woodson Jordan b. 12-27-1772 and his second wife Anna?.

      http://genforum.genealogy.com/jordan/messages/5050.html
      Here again, Janet Koch gives info about 3 wives and the migration of Woodson Jordan.
      "Woodson Jordan got around alot from Va. to Ky, to Va, into W.V., and had three wives, and lots of kids, which is why his dad William (Harrison) Jordan had already given him his inheritance long before he passed away."

      Donna Forney Clark: So if I were looking at the above data cold, with no documentation, I would start by working with these possible trees, remembering that everything here is a supposition on my part.

      [Donna Forney Clark: I think some of Nancy Derrick's children given below may be the children of another mother. Also, Nancy Derrick was married to Woodson Jordan after Jemima Ragsdale (this placement could be a software error). Jemima Ragsdale is listed below as Jemima Harrison.
