Information on Anne Seawright
From "A Record of the Searight Family", by James Allison Searight, pg. 57:
Anne Seawright, the third child of William and Anne (Hamilton) Seawright, of Lampiter township, Lancaster county, Pennsylvania, was born on the home farm, and married William Woods. Mr. and Mrs. Woods removed about 1780 from Lancaster county, Pennsylvania, to Augusta county, Virginia, where two years later William Woods died. His widow died some years afterward, and the valuable estate which he left at his death, and which is described in his will,* recorded on page 256, deed book No. 6, of Augusta county, Virginia, passed into the possession of his children. To William and Anne (Seawright) Woods were born two children :
- I. Seawright, who married Anne McCloskey.
- II. Alexander.
