Re: Ruth Talley nee Woods

Surnames: Talley, Woods
Brenda, the 1910 census might suggest that her maiden name was Woods. They lived in Lonoke, Lafayette CO, AR in 1910 and the transcription of their census record left a little to be desired. But 27 year old Adrian Woods and 24 year old Ruby Woods live with Tom, Ruth, Woodson, and Sam in that census. Adrian is listed as Tom's brother-in-law and Ruby is listed as his sister-in-law. Both Tom and Adrian are listed as "single" thus not married together. This strongly indicates that they were Ruby's brother and sister, hence the maiden name of Woods. I would even conjecture that "Woodson" for the son's name may have been derived from the Mother's maiden name.
