     Mary B. (?) was born in February 1855 in New York.³ She married Robert M. Woodin, son of Egbert N. Woodin and Mary Millard, about 1876.³
     She and her husband Robert were living in Beekman, Dutchess Co., New York, in 1880. They are listed in the census in the same building as Robert's parents, but as a separate family. A 15-year-old servant, Ann Wyble, was living with them.⁴ They moved to Ann Arbor, Washtenaw Co., Michigan, sometime before 1886, when their son Egbert died there as an infant.⁵ They are listed in the 1894 Michigan state census and the 1900-1930 federal censuses in Washtenaw Co., Michigan, in Ann Arbor in 1894 and 1900, in Ann Arbor Twp. in 1910 and 1920, and back in Ann Arbor in 1930. In 1894 a servant, Ella Miller, was living with them, and in 1900 Jeffery Colling, Harry Quackenbush, and Arthur Haare, all students (presumably at the University of Michigan) were boarding with them.^6,3,2,7,8
     She and Robert had three children: Bertha (b July 1878), Jennie (b abt March 1880, d bef 1900), Egbert A. (b abt 1885, d 24 March 1886).^4,3,5

     George W. Millard was born in October 1848 in New York.^2,1
     He was living with his parents in Beekman, Dutchess Co., New York, in 1870 and 1880.^3,4 He was living in Torrington, Litchfield Co., Connecticut, in 1900. His mother Ruth was then living with him. They are listed in the census as being in a different house, but at the same address, as his sister Sarah and her family.^2,5 In 1910 both he and his mother were listed in the same household as his sister's family, in New Haven, New Haven Co., Connecticut.⁶ And in 1920 he was living as a boarder with Henry Woodin's family in Patterson, Putnam Co., New York.⁷
     He was working as a farm laborer in 1870, laborer in 1880, "wire drawn brass" in 1900, and gardner in 1910.^3,4,2,6
     He may have married sometime between 1880 and 1900. He is listed as a widower in the 1900 census, but as single in all the other censuses, including 1910 and 1920.^3,4,2,6,7

     Sarah A. Millard was born about January 1860 (based on her age of 5/12 when the census was emunerated on 28 June 1860) in New York.¹ She probably married William H. Smith about 1885.^2,3
     She is listed with her parents in Beekman, Dutchess Co., New York, in the 1880 census, but the line is crossed out, indicating that she may have actually been living elsewhere.⁴ She was then working as a schoolteacher.⁴
     She and her husband William were living in Torrington, Litchfield Co., Connecticut, in 1900. They are listed in the census as being in a different house, but at the same address, as Sarah's brother George Millard and mother Ruth. Living with William and Sarah were boarders Edna M. Smith (age 11) and Geo. W. Smith (age 38).^2,5 They moved to New Haven, New Haven Co., Connecticut, sometime before 1910. Sarah's brother George and mother Ruth were then living with them, as was Elizabeth Hancox, a lodger.³ They were still in New Haven in 1920, but by then only their son Donald was with them.⁶
     The conclusion that William Smith's wife Sarah was Sarah Millard is based primarily on the information in the 1910 census for those living with him. Those listed with William include his wife Sarah (age 39, born in New York), brother-in-law George Myllard (single, age 62, born in New York), and mother-in-law Ruth Myllard (widow, age 84, born in New York, mother of two children with both living in 1910). All this is consistent with William's wife Sarah being the daughter of John and Ruth (Woodin) Millard. It should be noted, however, that the 1900 census lists Sarah's birth date as November 1860. Her age is listed as 40, with 39 written above in a different style, apparently a correction added later to be consistent with the listed birth date. If she was actually born in November 1860, she could not have been the daughter of John and Ruth Millard, since their daughter Sarah was listed with them in the 1860 census, enumerated in June 1860. If, however, the originally-listed age of 40 was correct, the birth date of November 1860 must be incorrect.^3,2,1
     Sarah is listed in the 1900 and 1910 censuses as having had nine children, with only one then living, Donald (b abt 1892).^2,3

     Edward M. Woodin was born on 31 January 1843 (based on his age at death of 65 years, 11 months, 21 days) in New York.^2,1 He married Lucinda L. Masters about 1864 (based on the 1900 census, which says they had been married for 36 years, and Edward's death certificate, which says he first married at age 21).^3,4,5,6,2 He died on 21 January 1909 in Romeo, Macomb Co., Michigan, at age 65 from kidney disease.² He was buried on 23 January 1909 at Romeo Cemetery in Macomb Co., Michigan.²
     He and his wife Lucinda were living in Oakland, Susquehanna Co., Pennsylvania, in 1870.³ They moved to Romeo, Macomb Co., Michigan, sometime between 1874 and 1880 (based on the birth location of their daughter Frances and the 1880 census).⁷
     They were probably still living in Romeo in 1900. Although he is listed as Joseph instead of Edward in the 1900 census, his wife is listed as Lucinda L., the birth dates and locations of Joseph and Lucinda, and his occupation, are consistent with the information on Edward and Lucinda Woodin in the 1870 and 1880 censuses. In addition, their daughter Esther (Woodin) Hicks is listed nearby with her family. Living with them were three grandchildren, listed in the census as Olive Hicks (born June 1887 in Missouri), Henry W. Hicks (born October 1892 in Michigan), and Alice Hicks (born February 1894 in Michigan). It should be noted, however, that Henry and Alice, at least, should have been listed with the surname Wellsted; they were children of Edward and Lucinda's daughter Frances and her husband Frank Wellstead.^6,8,9,10
     He was working as a farm laborer in 1870, but soon became a carpet weaver.^3,7,6,2
     He and Lucinda had six children, with just one living until 1900, but names are known for only two: Esther L. (b December 1869, d 6 October 1910) and Frances (b abt 1874, d 22 April 1897).^{2,6,3,11,7,12}

     Franklin Woodin was born about 1844 in New York.¹ He died between 15 June 1870, when he was listed with his parents in the census, and 5 December 1901, when his father's death certificate noted that he had had four children with just three then living.^2,3

     Emaline Woodin was born about 1846 in New York.¹ She married Emory Finch, son of Sylvester Finch, on 21 February 1868 in Armada Twp., Macomb Co., Michigan.²
     She and her husband Emory lived with his parents in Armada Twp., Macomb Co., Michigan, after their marriage, and probably remained in Armada Twp. the rest of their lives. They are listed there together in the 1870-1900 censuses. In 1900 their adult children were still living at home, all still single.^3,4 She continued to live in Armada Twp. after her husband's death. In the 1910 census her single son Emory, and her married son Alsey and his family, were living with her. In 1920 she is listed in Alsey's household, along with her then-widowed son Emory.^5,6
     She and Emory had the following known children, all born in Armada Twp., Macomb Co., Michigan: Franklin W. (b 30 July 1868, d 18 November 1909), Emory E. (b 8 October 1871), Alsey M. (b 29 April 1875).^7,8,9,10

     Hannah A. Woodin was born on 26 August 1851 in New York.^2,3,1 She married Charles W. Kent, son of Nelson Kent and Emaline (?), about 1876.^4,5,6 She may have been buried at Bruce Armada Cemetery in Macomb Co., Michigan. Her marker also includes the names of her husband Charles, their children Eugene, Eli, and Clayton, and her parents Benjamin and Esther Woodin. For Hannah, Eugene, Eli, and Clayton, only birth dates are inscribed, indicating that they may be buried elsewhere.⁷
     In 1880 she and her husband Charles were living with her parents in Armada Twp., Macomb Co., Michigan.⁸ She continued to live in Armada Twp. after her husband's death, and is listed in the 1900 census as head of the household, again living with her parents.³ In 1910 she was living in Armada Twp. with her son Clayton, as neighbors to her son Eugene and his wife Aurilla.⁹
     She and Charles had the following known children, all born in Armada Twp., Macomb Co., Michigan: Eugene (b 7 August 1877), Eli (b 29 November 1882), Clayton (b 22 September 1888).^6,10,11

     Olive Brazee was born on 4 February 1836 in Ohio.^3,4,5,2 She married John W. Stone, son of John B. Stone and Anna Baldwin, about 1856.^2,5 She died on 24 August 1926 in Jefferson, Ashtabula Co., Ohio, at age 90.^3,4 She was buried on 26 August 1926 at Oakdale Cemetery in Ashtabula Co., Ohio.^6,3
     She and her husband John were living in Conklin, Broome Co., New York, in 1860.⁷ They moved to Ohio sometime before 1870, when they were living there in Denmark Twp., Ashtabula Co..⁸ In 1880 they were living with their daughter Flora's family in Jefferson Twp., Ashtabula Co.⁹, and in 1900 they were living in the village of Jefferson, Ashtabula Co. Their grandson Earl Stone was living with them.⁵ In 1910, after her husband's death, she was still living in Jefferson, along with her son Edwin and grandson Earl.¹⁰
     She and John had the following known children: Flora Estell (b 10 May 1856, d 30 April 1929), Emma Brazee (b 5 March 1859), Ora Etta (b 21 March 1861, d 7 August 1949), Job S. (b 18 February 1863, d 15 January 1864), Edwin E. (b 1 November 1864, d January 1942), Harriett Anne (b 7 April 1868, d 1962). This list is consistent with the 1910 census, which says Olive had six children, with five then living; however, the 1900 census says ten children, with five then living.^4,10,5
