Edwin Stephen Woodring, the youngest child of John Joseph and Mary Ann Woodring, was born near Wescoesville, Lower Macungie town- ship, Lehigh county, February 17th, 1872. He spent his boyhood days on the farm. It was his good fortune at the age of fifteen to be able to attend the public schools of Philadelphia, spend- ing one year in the Grammar school and one year in the high school.
In the spring of 1889 he spent one term as a student in Schuylkill Seminary, now Albright College. In 1890 he matriculated at Muhlen- berg College, and in 1894 he graduated from that institution with honors, in the classical course, and was granted the degree of B.A. He also received the first prize for the best com- petitive examination in Butler's Analogy, namely twenty-five dollars in gold.
After graduating from Muhlenberg College, he took a two years' course in the Chicago Bible Institute, of which D. L. Moody. the Evange- list, was the founder.
In June, 1897, Muhlenberg College, in rec- ognition of the studies pursued during a three years' course subsequent to the completion of his college course, conferred upon him the degree of Master of Arts.
The General Conference of the United Evan- gelical Church, meeting in the fall of 1894, in Naperville, Illinois, granted him license to preach. He was the first man licensed by that denomination after the organization of said church. In the spring of 1896, while still a student at the Bible school, he was requested to assume the pastorate of the Adams Street United Evangelical Church, of Chicago. He served in this capacity for a full term of four years, after which he was transferred to Geneseo, Illinois. Later he served Grace Church of Naperville, Illinois, which is the strongest church of that denomination in the State. In 1907 he deter- mined to return to his native state of Pennsyl- vania, and was received into the East Pennsyl- vania Conference, which stationed him to Christ Church, Philadelphia. He served this church for
a full term of four years, and in the spring of 1911 was assigned to Seibert United Evangelical church of Allentown. To this church his parents had belonged, the father having served it as a class leader for many years. Rev. Woodring is now serving his third year as pastor of this flour- ishing congregation.
During the seventeen years of his ministry he has been eminently successful. At Naperville he began the project of building a new church. Ac- cordingly one of the finest corners in the city was purchased, and nearly $20,000.00 secured. Be- fore the actual work of building could be started, his term had expired and he decided to unite with the East Pa. Conference. His successor built the church, which is recognized as the finest build- ing in the United Evangelical Church, west of Pennsylvania.
In the fall of 1896 he was united in marriage to. Lulu E. Koons, of Allentown, a daughter of Simon and Belinda Koons. Three sons were born to them of whom only one is living, Philip Wendell. He was named after the first Acker on his grandmothers side and after the first Kline in his great-grandmother's side, who came to America.

WUCHTER FAMILY.
The Wuchters of Lehigh county are descended from Hans Martin Wuchter, who took the oath of allegiance at Philadelphia, Sept. 1, 1749. He had two brothers, one settled in Broome county, New York, the other went West and was lost sight of. Chauncey Voughter, of Binghamton, New York, a descendant of the brother who set- tled in New York, claims that the father had al- ready preceded his three sons, having been com- pelled to flee because of some political offense. (There is mention made of the Reynard Vodges, in the history of Lowhill township, under date of 1745. History of Lehigh County, 1884.) The family is said to have been knighted in ye olden times, and that it is related to the Duke of Orleans, and the tradition of knighthood is strenghtened by historical researches. It is al- leged that the family has a just claim to a large estate held in the courts of Amsterdam involving 1,600 acres of land, near Hell Gate, New York.
