William
Womack, born ca. 1610-1620, believed to be the patriarch of most
Womack's in the United States today. Personally I have never
found any documentation or proof that he actually existed other
than traditions past down from generation to generation. Most
records that have been used to show proof, I believe refer to
his son William. Whoever our patriarch was William or a Richard,
as some believe based on the 1672 land patent, we do have
records of his children.
Oscar Womack
Editor, Womack
Genealogy Newsletter, January
1957, said "we should try to prove our lineage as in a
court of
law", however I know there are times when that piece of
paper is just not there and all we have is family traditions. As
Sam Womack another Womack researcher has said many times,
"I'm not calling my ggrandma a liar". Proof is very
important and we should make every effort to find it whenever
possible.
