NOTE: Woolery and Alfred previously found in 1850 Fulton Co, IL census. Illinois land records show that Alfred obtained a land grant in 1849 in Woodford Co. as did Harrison Simpson. This family appears to have migrated to Illinois from Pickaway Co, OH. Could Elizabeth be the same as Elizabeth Reynolds who married Alfred Combs Jan 8, 1846 in Pickaway Co, Ohio, as reported in marriages listed on Pickaway's Ancestry/Rootside website? Willery aka Woolery aka Woolsey was age 60 in the 1850 census. His wife appears to have been deceased by 1850. There is no information as to the identity of Phebe Thorp but with the name Phebe, she could have been related.
