Martha (Prout) Wooldridge
She and William Wooldridge lived in Lewannick, Cornwall, England, in 1861.11 Martha Prout and William Wooldridge lived in Lewannick, Cornwall, in 1871.12 Martha was the spouse of William Wooldridge when he immigrated to Boston, Massachusetts on 11 Apr 1880 on the Mauritania.13,14
While Martha's maiden name is recorded as "Scown" on the birth certificate of William, it is recorded as "Prout" on her marriage certificate and on the birth certificates of the other eight children. It is possible that William, based on his own birth certificate, was responsible for "Scown" being used on Martha's death certificate and on her gravestone.14

Elizabeth Wooldridge was born on 6 Mar 1850 at Congdonford, South Petherwin, Cornwall, England.1,2,3 She was the daughter of William Wooldridge and Martha Prout. She married Joseph Howell Pearce on 3 Apr 1878 at Launceston, Cornwall, England.4 Elizabeth Wooldridge died on 7 Sep 1906 at Wakefield, Middlesex County, Massachusetts, at age 56.5 She was buried on 10 Sep 1906 at Lakeside Cemetery, Wakefield, Middlesex County, Massachusetts.6
South Petherwin is the parish situated between the Borough of Launceston and the parish of Lewannick. Stanley Wooldridge was unable to locate Congdonford and thought the birthplace might have been Congdon Shop or Trecongdon. Elizabeth lived, after her marriage, in St. Cleer and Callington, Cornwall and in Exeter, Devon. In Exeter the family lived on Longbrook Street; the girls went to St. Sidwell's School (still used in 1969); the family attended St. Sidwell's Church of England (replaced after the last war) and, on occasion, Exeter Cathedral. The girls played in nearby Northerhay Park. Elizabeth was the last of the Wooldridge family to leave England and, in 1898, the family emigrated to Wakefield, Massachusetts. When James Wooldridge returned to England about 1900 he sent Elizabeth three photographs. These are listed below with notations on backs of each shown in quotation marks. 1. "Lewannick Village". View of main street looking north from point opposite Church of England showing two story masonry buildings. 2. "Tinneyhall Church". This Methodist chapel appears the same today. Stone wall reads "Bible Christian Ebenezer Chapel 1841". 3. "Old Homestead Higher Trevell". This is a view from the road of south end of two story house with gray stone masonry walls and gray slate roof. "Higher Trevell" is indicated on 2½-inch Ordnance Survey Map SX 28/38 as settlement on Route A30 about 0.6 miles west of Lewannick Village. The house nearest to and at right angles to the road was identified by Stanley Wooldridge as the old homestead. In 1969 the masonry walls were covered with cement stucco and the slate roof replaced with green corrugated roofing. The one story shed attached to south end of house appeared to be of original construction. Elizabeth lived in this house from 1854 until her marriage in 1878.7 She resided with William Wooldridge and Martha Prout in Lewannick, Cornwall, England, in 1861.8 Elizabeth, William Wooldridge and Martha Prout's child, resided with William and Martha, at Lewannick, Cornwall, in 1871.9 Elizabeth Wooldridge and Joseph Howell Pearce lived at Dobwalls, Liskeard, Cornwall, England, in 1881.10 Elizabeth Wooldridge lived at Launceston Road, Callington, Cornwall, England, in 1891.11
She and Joseph Howell Pearce emigrated in 1898 from England.12,13,14,15,16 After Joseph went back to England around 1900, Elizabeth rented rooms to boarders to help pay expenses. She had purchased the house in Wakefield.17 Elizabeth Wooldridge and Joseph Howell Pearce lived at 10 Franklin Street, Wakefield, Middlesex County, Massachusetts, in 1900.18
