     Nathaniel Wofford witnessed Comfort was only about 20 when she married Nathaniel Wofford, abt 1792. The daughter Sarah Pruitt was born abt. 1797-98 And, I'm not even sure that Comfort Snow was married to a Cornfeld Pruitt (different spellings) or that the daughter Sarah was the daughter of Cornfeld Pruitt. In Comfort's will, she names all of her children. I believe Sarah the daughter was married at the time, to a J. Pruitt. For years there was a J. Pruitt and his wife, Sarah, and children living near Woffords. The only other daughter who was married at the time is listed by her married name.

I give to my children to wit: L. H. (Levi H. died in 1856) Wofford, Elender Wofford, Sarah Pruitt, Catherine Wofford, James Wofford, Jeremiah Wofford, The Children of my son Nathaniel, Benj' E. Wofford, Jesse Wofford, Mary Wofford, & Margarete Elh Hendrik, & the children of John Wofford the remainer of my estate to be divided among them equally except that the children of Nathaniel and John Wofford are to receive the shares of their parents respectively....There was a son, William Wofford who died in the War of 1812.1 He witnessed And was this the Nathaniel Wofford who died before 1827 probably in Georgia, and left orphaned children? Was this the Nathaniel Wofford, who went to GA, and was he the one who was living in open adultery with Polydor Naylor's wife, Elizabeth from about 1815 through at least the time the divorce decree was issued1821. This was the first divorce decree issued in St. Clair County, AL. Polydore Naylor was a probate judge from 1821-1823. Polydore moved from GA to AL and took his wife, Elizabeth to get her away from this Nathaniel Wofford thinking it would solve the problem but Elizabeth ran back to GA and to Nathaniel Wofford, wouldn't leave Nathaniel and go back with Polydore Naylor to AL. He filed for the divorce, and it was granted. I have nothing more on this Nathaniel Wofford

  1. History of the Wofford Family lists her as Cornford Snow, not correct. Also, one reference had her married to Cornfeld Pruitt - not sure this is correct either.

    One reference had Pate, but I can not find where it came from, so I am removing it based on new input.
