Commentary
NOTE: Much of this information is a fraudulent genealogy. Other information has been disproved. For example, John Warburton Womack's grandfather, Abraham Womack, is listed as dying on 9 Dec 1804, but he actually died between 2 June 1797, when he made his will, and 1 Sep 1797, when an inventory was taken of "the goods and chattels of the Estate of Abraham Womack late deceased". The birth and death dates given here of Richard Womack III, supposedly born 7 Dec 1810 and supposedly died 23 July 1785, are very dubious.
Note that this biography of John Warburton Womack claims his descent from two different Church of England Bishops, William Warburton (explaining John Warburton Womack's middle name) and Lawrence Womack. Not coincidentally, William Warburton was the only Warburton, and Lawrence Womack the only Womack, in Lempriere's Universal Biography, a book cited by by John Warburton Womack in his 1850 letter to a cousin.
