Description

[Left-Right]: Unidentified and Henry Clay Sayers Sr. [1840-1926]. The unidentified man had been labeled as either James Woods or Samuel Woods, both of whom were brothers of Abigail (Woods) Hoge. James Woods was married to Mary Sayers, cousin of Henry Sayers. However, the heirs of Samuel Woods and his sister Abigail (Woods) Hoge have shared many photos including images of both Samuel and James. Unfortunately, the appearances of the Woods men do not match up to the young man on the left in this image.
