I'm not researching this family, just trying to help you.
I don't even live in Indiana.
I don't know what all you have so will send what I found.
1900 census Annie and Luther were in Vanderburgh Co. Pigeon Twp. with their parents and
siblings:
Buford Woods b. Sept 1848
Annie b. May 1854
Annie b.Dec 1880 age 19 b. KY
Luther b. Jun 1890 age 9.
1910: Same place, their mother had died by then.
Buford Woods age 61 WD b. KY
Luther son, age 20 single, b. IN employed furniture factory.
Not sure if this is the same Buford Woods but I found one in Boyle, KY 1920 age 70 b. KY.
Wife was Nannie age 58 b. KY
1920: Vanderburgh Co. Evansville Pigeon Twp.
John Renschler age 44 b. IN
Anna, wife age 40 b.KY
and children.
Found WW1 Card on John Renschler. He was born 4 Jul 1875.
He was age 44 when registered in Evansville, IN. Nearest relative was Annie. Address 2214
Division in Evansville.
He registered 12 Sep 1918.
Found WW1 Card on Luther Woods b. 1 Jun 1891 age 26.
Born Evansville, IN. Employer T.A. Jones in Henderson, KY.
Mother was listed as dependent, He was single. Residence
was Alzey, KY. (WW1 Card was dated 5 Jun 1917 so Luther's parents may have been
separated because Buford listed himself as widowed in 1910 census.)
WW2 Card (1942) Luther Wakefield Woods. Res. 226 Sawmill St. Mt. Vernon, Posey Co. IN. Age
51. Birth was 1 Jun 1890 in Evansville, IN. Name and address of person who will always
know his residence was Katie Dipple listed same address.
Employer Edgar Thomas, Sharecropper.
In my Indiana Birth Index I found only one birth for John Renschler and Annie Woods.
Arthur H. born 15 Feb 1906 in Vanderburgh Co. IN.
Didn't find any later censuses on Luther.
Hope this helps.
