William Wooldridge had at least two wife's; the name of the first, whom he probably married in the late 1730's, is not known. his second wife, whom he seems to have married about 1750 in Chesterfield County, was Sarah Flournoy (94) of the noted Huguenot family of that name.

• 94. They named a daughter Sarah Flournoy. Mrs. Sarah Shipp Walker, Wooldridge notes, Virginia State Library, has pointed out that Francis Flournoy's will refers to his daughter Sarah only by her first name, but leaves her a slave, Rachel, who is subsequently named by William Wooldridge in his will. She also cites a 1761 deed of 200 acres from Frances Flournoy and Andrew LaPrade (his son-in-law) to William Wooldridge for very nominal consideration, suggesting the consideration flowed to LaPrade, and Flournoy's interest was a gift. William Wooldridge witnessed deeds for Francis Flournoy on June 18, 1765, to his sons Francis Flournoy, William Flournoy, Gibson Flournoy (William and Sarah Wooldridge named their first son Gibson) , Josiah Flournoy, James Flournoy and Jacob Flournoy.
