 Hi Rod,
My paternal grandmother was Agnes Ida WOOLSEY.  She told my mom once upon a time, that Sheldon P. WOOLSEY was a relative.
Is there anything in your realm, that indicates whom his parents were?
According to census and cemetery records, I show the following children, as "known":

Alta M. WOOLSEY, b. 21 May 1859 WI, d. 21 Dec 1878, Fayette Co., IA
Minna WOOLSEY, b. 29 Mar 1870 IA, d. 23 Aug 1870, Fayette Co., IA
Mattie WOOLSEY, b. 29 Mar 1870 IA, d. 17 Aug 1870, Fayette Co., IA.
Volney J. WOOLSEY, b. abt 1871 IA  (no final disposition on this person).
Frank B. WOOLSEY, b. 2 Feb 1873 IA, 22 Dec 1878, Fayette Co., IA.
(Baby) WOOLSEY, b. 15 Aug 1876 IA, D. 15 Aug 1876, Fayette Co., IA.
Alice C. WOOLSEY, b. May 1880 IA, (no final disposition on this person).

Sheldon, Malinda and children are all buried in the Dunham Grove Cemetery, Randalia, Fayette Co., IA. (about two rows over from my grandparents).
