The Woodley-Bailey Family
The Lives and Ancestry of Howard Louis Bailey and Edith Bertha Woodley Bailey

This site honors Edith Woodley Bailey (1913-2005) and Howard Louis Bailey (1912-1995), who taught the importance of family by example.
They are missed every day.

Edith and Howard are shown on the left on their wedding day, 31 August 1940. The photo was taken in the garden at Edith's parents' home in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
The photo above is from 1972.

All place names are in the United States unless indicated otherwise.
Names of counties and other intermediate governmental entities have been excluded for major cities and well-known towns. For convenience, some places, such as Nova Scotia, are referred to by their current designation (i.e., Canada) although at the time of certain events they may not yet have been considered part of that governmental entity

The information in this website changes frequently due to ongoing research. At the moment, people included are ancestors of Howard and Edith plus other people who are being added as I edit their information for proper display with this web program. In general, living people are excluded except for mention of their names as offspring. Anyone born in the last 100 years or so for whom I have no death information is shown as living. Family members for whom I have information in my genealogy records but whose records I have not yet edited are indicated as "excluded".
