| 18003 | Joseph Sherwood was residing in present-day Doddridge County (then Harrison County) as early as 1838, as his signature appears on a legislative petition for the formation of a new county. Additionally, according to an 1833 map containing the location of the 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th Western Sections of the North Western Turnpike, the Sherwood family was already living then in present-day Doddridge County. The map is on file at the Library of Virginia, Board of Public Works division. 1850 Census, Doddridge Co, Virginia (now West Virginia): Joseph Sherwood, 58, b. Del, farmer; Mary, 59, b. Md; Samuel T, 21, b. Pa, farmer; Elizabeth, 26, b. Pa; Joseph Jr, 28, b. Pa; Susanna, 22, b. Va; Ethalinda, 5, b. Va; James T, 1, b.

WVa; mother Mary, 90, b. Pa [sic], widowed, cannot write. NOTE: Daughter Maud Sherwood is actually John Sherwood's stepdaughter, Barbara Maude Steel, daughter of Elizabeth McClain and James E. Steel, who were not married We have found no record of Joseph Sherwood after the 1860 Census, or of his wife Mary after the 1880 Census. Based largely on headstones at a cemetery in Buchanan Co, Missouri, some researchers report that this Joseph Sherwood was born Aug 2 1794 and died Mar 28 1863 in Missouri, and that his wife was Margery (b. Sep 24 1798, d. Jan 24 1859). We believe this to be incorrect, as it is contradicted by the foregoing census records. | Family: Joseph SHERWOOD / Mary ___ (F21641)

|
| 18006 | Joseph William Ross is identified in his death record as a son of James Ross and Sarah Lindswiler, but he does not appear in any census with that family. The child whose age corresponds to that of Joseph is identified as Josiah R in the 1870 Census, and as Robert W in the 1880 Census. 1870 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (New Milton District), enumerated on Aug 2 1870: James Ross, 50, farmer; Sarah, 34; Margaret A, 17; Unus, 15, idiot; Joshua T, 13; George A, 11; James H, 5; Josiah R, 2.

(Note: It appears likely that the Robert W in this census is the same son identified as Josiah R in the 1870 Census and who was otherwise known as Joseph William Ross.) | Family: James ROSS / Sarah Ann LINKSWILER (F3332)
|
| 18007 | Joseph Wisby served in the War of 1812, for which his wife Jane received a Bounty Land Warrant, #50-40-Wt. 48,872. The 1820 Census of Brown County, OH, shows Joseph and Jane with seven children, one boy and six girls. The family was in Highland Co, OH for the 1830 Census. The 1934 Cincinnati City Directory shows Jane Wisby, a widow & seamstress. She was listed in the 1850 Census of Hamilton Co, with eldest son Return Meigs Wisby, but was not in 1860 Census. | WISBY, Joseph (I10879)

| 18017 | Judge Homer B. Woods was born on a farm near Harrisville July 16, 1869, the fourth son of a circuit-riding pastor, Rev. Philip A. and Salina (Wells) Woods. At the age of 16, he began teaching, a pursuit which he continued for several years. Woods attended Marietta College and took a course in the law department of the University of West Virginia. He was selected as superintendent of Ritchie County public schools while still pursuing his law degree. After two terms as superintendent, he returned to teaching for several years. Woods was principal of Harrisville High School, and later principal at Pennsboro High School. In 1892, he was admitted to the West Virginia Bar Association. He had a private law practice in Harrisville until 1896, when he was elected prosecuting attorney. He retired from that position in 1904 after two terms, after which he was elected as judge for the Third Circuit Court, covering Ritchie, Doddridge and Pleasants counties. Judge Woods continued his legal career when he was nominated by the Republican party in August 1920 as an unopposed candidate for a third term as Circuit Court judge. Judge Woods went on to be named as a West Virginia Supreme Court judge in 1924, serving in that capacity until 1936. He died in March 1941. An extensive display pertaining to the life and career of Judge Homer B. Woods, donated by his granddaughter Winifred Woods Gulyas, was dedicated at the General Thomas M.

| 18019 | Judith Ann Corrin, 79, of Wellington, Florida, died on April 10, 2025. She was born in Clarksburg, West Virginia in 1945 to Edward Wayne Corrin and Maxine Law Corrin. She had a lifelong appreciation of nature that was nurtured by water skiing on Deep Creek Lake, Maryland during early family vacations. After matriculating from Mount Vernon Seminary in Washington, D.C.in 1963, she attended Sweet Briar College in Sweet Briar, Virginia. She then moved briefly to New York City and attended the Katharine Gibbs Secretarial School before marrying Lieutenant Commander (SEAL) Eric B. Anderson, United States Navy (Retired). Her travels as a Navy wife included several years in Brindisi and Gaeta, Italy before settling in Virginia Beach, VA with her daughters. Judy found great joy in her bridge club activities as well as golfing near home and in tournaments around the state with her friends. One of her hobbies included a family genealogy project in which she documented the lives of her forebears back to their origin on the Isle of Man and England through their journey to Ohio and West Virginia. After her retirement from bookkeeping for a local construction company, she dedicated many volunteer hours to the Unitarian Church of Norfolk (now the Coastal Virginia Unitarian Universalists) in the office and as part of the Social Justice Committee with the Norfolk Emergency Shelter Team (NEST). Judy also participated in local political and humanitarian causes such as assisting underrepresented minorities to register to vote and working with an organization that provides interview outfits and mentorship to women entering the professional workforce. She provided years of patient support for the varying needs of her children including long car trips to many horse shows and horseback riding camps for her eldest and countless trips to the public library with her youngest. In her later years she moved to south Florida to be closer to her grandchildren. There she played a major role in their upbringing and education, which somewhat to their chagrin included an emphasis on proper decorum and table manners. She was an avid reader of news, poetry, fiction, and non-fiction. She also enjoyed outdoor walks, puzzles, word play, and clever jokes. Judy was preceded in death by her brother, Edward Wayne Corrin, Jr. She is survived by two daughters, two grandchildren, a niece and a nephew. No public memorial is planned. Donations may be made to the Coastal Virginia Unitarian Universalists in Virginia Beach, VA. https://www.tillmanfuneralhome.com/obituaries/judith-corrin | CORRIN, Judith Ann "Judy" (I139669)

In 1924, she was an aide in her father's presidential campaign as the Democratic canditate against Calvin Coolidge. She traveled extensively, including visits to India and Russia. Involved in child adoption, she was children's agent of the New York Charities Aid Association from 1933 to 1938 and president of the Children's Aid Society of New York form 1962 to 1965. She lived at various times in New York City, Connecticut, Princeton NJ, summers in Canaan, NY, and, most recently, her childhood home of Charles Town.

During the last 18 months of her life, she published three books, one of them a memoir of her years accompanying her father, lawyer and politician John W. Davis. Her 1963 play "The Anvil," about the trial of John Brown, was produced off Broadway in New York and at Harpers Ferry, W.Va. She was also a trustee of the Berkshire Theatre Festival in Stockbridge, Mass. | DAVIS, Julia McDonald (I133185)

Hanna, in "Ohio Valley Genealogies," gives Charity's father as Joseph Cheeseman but does not identify her mother. | PARENT, Lydia (I3517)

| 18046 | Kevin Swann developed into one of the greatest athletes to ever compete on behalf of Doddridge County High School, from which he graduated in 1979. Excelling in all sports, Kevin was the captain of one of the best football teams in Bulldog history, earning All-State honors his senior year. Kevin anchored a staunch Bulldog defense which defeated Pineville High School (Wyoming County) in the State High School Football Playoffs, led by future NFL All-Pro Running Back Curt Warner. That Bulldog defense held Warner to the fewest rushing yards in his storied high school career. Kevin was captain of the Bulldog basketball team where he earned All-State honors, and he was a star pitcher on the Bulldog baseball team. His athletic prowess and affable demeanor led to him being voted "Mr. Doddridge County High School" his senior year. | SWANN, Kevin Lynn (I20037)
