90.JAMES PLEASANT4 WOODS (WILLIAM3, JOHN2, ARCHIBALD1)226 was born 04 Feb 1868 in Roanoke County, Virginia227, and died 1948227.He married SUSAN CATHERINE MOON227 1904227.She was bornin Pittsylvania County, Virginia227.
Notes for JAMES PLEASANT WOODS:
He was a graduate of Roanoke College in 1892 and the University of Virgina law School in 1893.He was an attorney in Roanoke until his death... He served as the 6th District Congressman for 5 years and was the Mayor of Roanoke. 1899-1901.In August 1943 he wrote his "Personal Biographical Sketches and Reminiscences."
"I was born February 4, 1868 at "Indian camp" on Catawba.It was in my time not known as "Indian Camp", but "Valley Echo".From old deeds in Botetourt and Augusta, however, it is referred to as a place called "Indian camp," and most assuredly it was an Indian camp as many old arrow heads and Indian relics are found there.Besides, my Father, who was born 1817, said when he was young, frequently friendly Indians passing through on their way to Washington, stopped and camped there, and frequently came to the house for food.Within a stone's throw of the home there were four good springs.
Our place and the McConkey farm on the east were deeded to Archibald Woods of Albemarle Co., Va., by the Mcafees about 1700 or 71.It was deeded to the McAfees by Robert Poague and to Poague by James McCoun in Augusta Co. records.I have traced the title to "Indian Camp" through the records of Botetourt and Augusta, but have not found the original crown grant.It is a very old place.James McAfee was the first or second settler in what is now Roanoke Co.(See Mccauley's History of Roanoke Co.)"Indian camp" may have been embraced in the Ben Borden grant of 500,000 acres.
It is not known who built the first very long log house which stood on the back side of where the garden now is - about 50 yards north of the present house.The log house burned soon after my Mother's marriage in 1856, and my father soon built the present house.While the new house was being built, my mother and father lived in part in the one room school house which stood at the edge of the meadow west of the branch.The old road didn't wind around as it does now, but ran straight across the branch lower down, and between the barn and the stable.The place would be improved in looks if the road were put back on the old location and further from the residence.The road would be straight.An old charred stump of a tree, burned when the house burned, still stood in the garden when I was a boy, fixing the location of the old house.
Archibald Woods had several children, among them John, my grandfather who owned "Indian Camp" and Joseph, a younger brother who owned the McConkey place and built the stone house thereon."
He concluded his reminiscences with thoughts for his children and grandchildren, "You come of sturdy but unpretentious, perhaps an overmodest ancestry.Have confidence in yourselves and maintain the strict integrity and solid virtues of your heritage."
Estelle Howe Winkler, descendant of Archibald Woods, Jr., son of Archibald and Mary, visited James Pleasant Woods at his office in 1945.He still came to his office every day - and she said he resembled her great grandfather, Archibald Clinton Woods.They would have been cousins.She said, "He hugged me and said I was the only one of his Missouri relatives he had ever seen."

James Pleasant said his brother, John, had been almost convinced that he did not descend from Arch and Isabella (Goss) Woods, but had not been able to work out who he did descend from.He said John had many records which were lost after John's death.Woods-McAfee Memorial places John and James Pleasant Woods as descendants of Archibald and Isabella (Goss) Woods, but says that there seems to be some question about the authenticity of this assumption.We have proved this assumption to be incorrect.Source:Mrs. Charles G.
