| + | Woodbury Blair was born about 1852 in Maryland or Washington, D.C. He became a lawyer. Although obstensibly a bachelor, a story related by Patricia Bosworth in her biography of Montgomery Clift, states that Woodbury did marry at least once. His wife, albeit by an elopement, and shortly thereafter annuled was Maria "Bobbie" Anderson. By this union, they had one child Ethel who was given up at birth and adopted by the Fogg family, although Woodbury never knew this child existed. His wife, or ex-wife, was kept in confinement by her own mother until the child's birth. | ||

| + | The Blair family, according to Patricia's report never accepted this story as true. | ||
