Upon a visit to her friend John Travola's home, Oprah discovered she's in the town full of 'Woods' descendants. The aunt she's looking for was a native of South Carolina, just as Frank Woods, Sr.
Frank Woods was a mysterious man who never revealed much about himself. He married a part Cherokee, part British petite colored woman named Julia Desdemona White, and had 2 children by her. Julia died of childbirth in 1917, leaving Frank to raise a 1 1/2 year old boy, Edgar. and newborn baby girl, Julia Elouise Lora.
These two tiny tots were actually raised by Adaline, Julia's devoted Christain mother.
Edgar grew up and married. He had 12 children. Julia Elouise moved to Jacksonville and married. She had 7 children.. Her youngest, Val ,became the first female Chief of Police in Orlando.
It is believed Oprah therefore met some of Edgar's offsprings and/or grandchildren in the region.
Is she related? Very exciting for Edgar and Julia Elouise's offspring, but yet has to be verified!
