There can be little doubt that this YOUNG line is an offshoot of the old family of which an account precedes this. A diligent search in the vital records of New Hamp- shire has failed to show the connection.

WOODMAN This name is found among the earliest in Newbury, Massachu- setts, with the history of which it has been more or less identified down to the present time, thence it spread to other towns in the vicinity and is now still represented throughout the United States.

There were two men of this name very early in Newbury, and they are supposed to have been brothers, namely: Edward and Archelaus. The latter was a "mercer," born somewhere between 1612 and 1618.

(VIII) Theodore W., youngest son and third of the four children of Samuel (3) and Lydia .1. ( Rollins) Woodman, was born in Dover, New Hampshire, and has passed his entire life in that town, and has had much to do with the upbuilding of the city. He has been for many years a dealer in real estate, and at the present time over one hundred tenants occupy his building. He has pro- vided many homes for the poorer classes at low rentals. In 1898 he built the imposing block which bears his name, at the corner of Central avenue and Hale street.
