The Isle of Wight and Boldre are very close - just a hop across The Solent, the stretch of water that separates the IOW from the mainland.
Both IOW and Boldre have old WOODFORD families but I haven't been able to establish a link between them but some of "my" WOODFORDS moved to the IOW in the 19th century.
I haven't come across Jane Way WOODFORD in my research but I think WAY is a Portsmouth/IOW name. Have you found her on the 1851 census? This would give her place of birth.

Thank you Geoff.
That census, as well as the 1861, is actually where I found her name and in a later census after she has passed, 1891, John S.WILLS - my gg gf- is living with his married daughter and her family, several of his children with one daughter named Louise Way WILLS.
Does anything much exist of the early 1800 OPR birth records for IOW?
Regards. Lindsay

The IOWFHS have an index of BMD from 1837

or you could try the IOW records office

Thank you. Since her birth Jane Way WOODFORD Isle of Wight c. 1805and that of her husband Henry Preston WILLS at Carisbrook c. 1805 are before 1837 the BMD won't work, but I will check the IOW records office. I appreciate the suggestion. Lindsay

BUT the 1851 census says that she was born in Salisbury, Wiltshire - not the IOW.

The 1861 says Isle of Wight. So now I am confused. I need to see the entry myself to note the order of members after the head and yes, I do expect someone to say, 'neck and shoulders, of course!".... 
I have been in contact with a third cousin, thanks to Geoff (please take a bow dear sir!). Perhaps better info exists there.
Thanks for your continued ideas. Lindsay
