  General Notes:

At the time of the 1850 census, he was a grocer in Keokuk, Lee County, Iowa.

Charles Woolsey ran grocery stores in New York City, Carlyle, IL, St. Louis, MO, and Keokuk, IA. He became a full time minister for the Northern Methodist Church in IA.

Obviously Charles twin brother was Hiram

In Charles' father's will it is mentioned that Charles has a child by the name of Mary Jane. That child may just be Jane Ann. I don't really know. 2
