Robert H. Woodside

My great, great, great grandfather was Robert H. Woodside, son of Samuel Cunningham Woodside and Jane/Jennet (Morrow?). He was born February 7, 1772 in Chester County, South Carolina, the second of eleven known children.

After moving to Kentucky, he married Ann Hill (1779-1842) on July 4, 1799 at Caldwell, Livingston County. Robert moved his family from Kentucky to Perry County, Illinois in 1829.

They had eleven children:
