Our subject grew up and spent his whole life in West Salem Township. He was twice married. His first wife was Maria, daughter of Andrew Brown, by whom three children survive: Clorinda, wife of J. W. Woods; Eliza J., wife of Alfred Moats, and Mary L., wife of Grover Fetterman. His wife died, and July 12, 1866, he was married to Mrs. Mary Ann Brown, daughter of Alexander Nelson. She was born in Sandy Creek Township, and November 25, 1852, married James Brown, by whom she had two children: Irwin C., and Emily L., wife of Augustus Kamerer. By her second marriage one son. William S., was born. Both the sons reside with their mother in West Salem Township. Politically Mr. Brown was a Republican, and one of the respected citizens of the township, where he died June 25, 1868.

      From "The Greenville Record-Argus", 7 Dect 1911 (newspaperarchive.com)
      MRS. WELLINGTON WOODS
      Mrs. Clarinda Brown Woods, wife of Wellington Woods of Maysville, died at her home November 30, 1911, aged 67 years. She was an estimable Christian woman, loved by all who knew her and for many years a consistent member of the West Salem Baptist Church. When the time of her departure came she was ready to go and in her words of farewell requested her loved ones to pray and so live that they should some time meet her in heaven. The members of her family left to mourn her death are her husband, two daughters, Mrs. Herman Mohr and Mrs. Melvin and one son Ernest. all of Maysville. "Thy day has come, not gone; thy sun has risen, not set. thy life is now beyond the reach of death of change, not ended - but begun. O noble soul! O gentel heart! Hail and and farewell."
