In Memoriam: Kenneth Jennings Wooster


What can you say about the uncle that shared your passion for genealogy?
Partner, co-conspirator, fellow researcher…

Together we searched through my maternal line and at times my paternal line as well.
We found all types of people, carpenters and farmers mostly by occupation. They settled this country. Mayflower passengers, Connecticut settlers that founded towns, Revolutionary War veterans and more. They spread out, eventually settling In New York, Minnesota, Iowa and other places across the country.

His mother’s family stayed closer to home in Ireland. At least some did. Others went to New Zealand and Australia, even more to America, including his mother at the age of nineteen.
Many of them explored and documented. More to do.

That elusive great-great grandfather of his, Lyman or is it really Leverett Wooster? We think we finally tracked him to the correct parents.
This and so much more.
Kenneth we’ll miss you.
Kenneth Jennings Wooster March 16, 1930-November 9, 2018
