The father of Sheriff Woods was Hanson L. Woods, an early settler of
Greenwood County, Kansas. [p.2197] He was born in Ohio in 1837, grew up in
that state, and when a young man removed to Sidney, Iowa. He had previously
served four years three months as a Union soldier in the Civil war. He
enlisted in 1861 in an Ohio regiment of infantry, and participated in some
of the most bitterly fought campaigns and battles of the war. He was in the
battles of Shiloh, Stone River, Chickamauga, Missionary Ridge and many other
engagements, and subsequently joined Sherman's great army which advanced
upon and captured Atlanta and thence marched through Georgia to the sea.

From Iowa he moved to Barton County, Missouri, in 1870, followed farming

there as he had in Iowa, and in 1879 moved to LaBette County, Kansas. In
1881 he transferred his residence to Greenwood County, and was a farmer
there until his death in 1888. He was a loyal republican in politics, served
a term as justice of the peace, and was very active in the Presbyterian
Church, which he served as an elder. He also belonged to the Masonic
fraternity. His first wife was a Miss Fort, but there were no children of
that union. For his second wife he married Mary E. Hodges (Goode). She was
born in Iowa in 1845, and died in Greenwood County, Kansas, in 1887. The
children of their marriage were: Frank, a farmer in Greenwood County; Walter
A.; Allie, wife of J. G. Smith, a farmer in Greenwood County; Essie, wife of
James Piatt, a farmer at Hamilton, Kansas. The mother of these children by
her first marriage had two daughters; Emma, who died at the age of sixteen;
and Dallie, who now lives in McPherson County, Kansas.

Joseph O. Gray. Payton R. Gray, a prominent and wealthy planter of Bear
Creek Township, was born in Livingston County, Ky., in 1818, being a son of
Presley Gray, also a Kentuckian by birth and a tiller of the soil, as was
his father, originally from Virginia. Presley Gray was a member of the
Cumberland Presbyterian Church, and lived until his seventy-second year. His
wife, Maria (Hodge) Gray, was connected with the Baptist Church. She was the
mother of seven children, all of whom are yet living, five residents of
Kentucky, one of Iowa and our immediate subject, who has been a citizen of
this State since 1847. He took charge of the old homestead at the age of
twenty years, and two years later was married to Mrs. Eliza (Dunn)
Thrailkill, who died a year after, leaving one child, which only lived nine
months. He then married Miss Maria Woods. She died shortly after his removal
to Mississippi, in 1844, leaving three children, all deceased. He was next
married to Mrs. Margaret S. Bohanan (nee Dickson), a native of Paris, Ky.,
who died in 1883. They were the parents of two children: Blanche (widow of
John E. Burke, living with her father) and Joseph O. (who was born in
Coahoma County, Miss., in 1848.) His father having been drafted for the
Confederate service in 1863, our subject went as a substitute, and served in
Dobbin's regiment of Confederate cavalry until the close of the war,
operating in Eastern Arkansas and Missouri, and receiving his discharge in
January, 1865. He was then employed in farming and clerking until 1872, when
he entered into the mercantile business at Philips Bayou, in which he has
since been engaged, with the exception of the years 1877-78. At that time
farming occupied his attention. Mr. Gray married in March, 1875, Miss Mary
C. Wilkins, a native of Lee County, Ark., and a daughter of Maj. Wilkins, an
officer in the Confederate army, now deceased. They have had one son who is
now deceased. Mr. Gray carries a stock of about $5,000, and his annual sales
amount to over $40,000. He is also extensively occupied in farming, owning a
half interest in 320 acres of fine land, besides some city property, and has
the control of over 1,500 acres of land. Mr. Gray is also the postmaster of
Philips Bayou, which position he has filled for the past eight years. In
connection with his other interests he is engaged in cotton-ginning,
operating two steam gins and one horse-power cottongin. He is a member of
the A. F. & A. M. His wife is a member of the Baptist Church.
