wilford.whitaker@comcast.net: Film: 505913: 1856 Utah State Census; I have not looked up this film myself: this is a quote from Mr. Whitakers data: Richard Woolsey settled his large family fairly early in Provo, Utah. He and a large faily (families) were found in the 1856 Utah State Census (FHL Film #505913). In that census, only naes & sex were recorded, so it is with some difficulty that the individuals can be identified. They were found on PP 954 & 956 and were definitely divided into three groups, as follows:
Richard Woolsey M (s/o Joseph & Abigail)
Sarah F (Who is she?)
Hannah (Foxhall) F B: Eng. . (also Alice & Eliz?)
Clarissa (Cole)
Julian M (IWho is Julian m.?)
Joseph (son of Hannah?)
Thomas (son of Sarah Kinworthy-Sarah is dead)
Pg: 954:
Geprge W. Woolsey M (s/o Sarah Kinworthy)
William M: (s/o Hannah) my grandfather- about 12 years old)
Richard M: (Hannah Foxhalls Richard is said to have died in 1844-who is this?)
pg: 956:
Sarah A. Woolsey F (dau of Clarissa)
Brigham M (son of Clarissa)
Mary F (son of Clarissa)
James R. M: (son of Clarissa)
Melissa A. F: (Son of Clarissa)
