Thanks for your help, both of you 
I've also found out that Woollard is spelt in many forms, such as Woolard and Wollard. At first i gave up but now if i can't find someone i just put in the different spelling and it usually works.

Regards, Tom

Hi Tom

Here are a few WOOLLARD events which look like they fit into your ancestry.  It is very possible that Rhoda and Charlotte were sisters of James (father of Malachi) as they were both witnesses at his marriage.  The name Allington WOOLLARD suggests a connection with the Dullingham, Wickhambrook and Withersfield holders of that name (IGI).

Very interesting Ruth, certainly looks that way. I will have to go to Cambridge record office to look for more.

Thankyou, Tom

Just to add some new info that i found, the Woollards that Ruth found in Kirtling weren't  James's siblings, they were his cousins.

James Woollard's (b. 1776) father was William Woollard (b. 1749) born in Cowlinge, Suffolk. James's mother was Mary Smith.
John Woollard, who we thought was James's father, was also born in Cowlinge in 1741 and married Ellen Halls. John and William were brothers.

William had 8 children whilst John had 9 children. That's a lot of Woollards in one little village like Kirtling.

I've also found William's parents, they were Edward Woollard (b. c1715) and Mary Harvey (b. c1714). They were both born in Suffolk, probably in Cowlinge.

Hi, This is my first time registering on this site and I can't believe my luck. I have been researching my WOOLLARD family tree on a number of genealogy websites for over 20 years and today I thought I would put into Google 'Woollard's, Cambridgeshire' to see what would come up. One of the links was to this thread. It was God given at a time when I waste again revisiting the details of my 5xgg William Woollard who married Mary Smith in Kirtling on 16 Aug 1771. For years I had not been happy with accepting William's baptism 22 May 1748 in Dullingham to parents William Woollard & Philadelphia Stammers. For this reason I had stopped trying to take my tree back further until I could confirm. I have always wanted to go to the Cambridge record office to check it out, but never had the chance.
Now to see all the work done for Tom regarding his post has been fabulous! I can now definitively prove the many people on Ancestry, FindMyPast, MyHeritage & now Geneanet wrong in their linking William Woollard b 1748 Dullingham as the father of my 4xgg James Woollard 1776-1850 Kirtling. Thanks to all involved in this thread- without you one elderly woman would not be ecstatic today!!
