John born 1668 married Sarah (Stanley) Woodall (1672-1713) and wrote the Will of 1750. In that Will, three children were named. William Woodall (abt.1707-aft.1772), John Woodall Jr. (abt.1710-aft.1788) and Sarah (Woodall) Prior (abt.1713-). This will get funny in reference to the Poindexter Claims discussed later in the writeup.
- (Needs Dna Study Link here) Early in the history, John Woodall of Genitoe Creek, whose Will dated 1750, appears to have three verifiable children and a DNA bombshell. The two boys, John and William Woodall, mentioned in his will are adopted. John Woodall Jr. (abt. 1710-aft. 1788) and his brother William Woodall (abt. 1707-aft. 1772) were adoptees.
This leads into several interesting stories with twists and turns Native lines and influences in the Woodall families are at the heart of the mix.
Son John Woodall (not matching DNA with Genitoe Creek)
Son John Woodall (1678-1750) (not matching DNA with father John of Genitoe Creek) has been heavily written of, so plenty of information about him. We will begin one of John's son the John Woodall.
John Woodall Jr. (abt.1710-aft.1788) who married Judith Sampson
We will begin with this John Woodall Group 4B) 1738 that married Ms. Pledge and one of his DNA legit grandsons from James B Woodall (Group 4B). I will also present John Woodall (1740-1822) (Group 4A) he is related to John Woodall (abt.1710-1806) (Group 4B) through a shared haplogroup. The story continues John Woodall (abt.1710-1806) (Group 6) his Haplogroup is different, he settled in South Carolina, these two men came from different countries. Shortly after arriving here in the New World though both these groups would cross paths and bloodlines with some well-known Native Americans leaders of the time. Last group William W Woodall (1818-1906) Q-M3 he was raised by James Woodall (1777-1844) (Group4B) legitimate son of John Woodall Jr. (abt.1710-aft.1788), this John of Genito Creek also played great-grandfather to our William W Woodall (1818-1906) (Group 3). His line ends / begins goes so far as 1818 having children, known as white, but definitely native. Keep all this in context for our dive into the Poindexter Claims. These various group of people knew each other.
