Notes

I'm convinced Henry Elias Wood was born about 1845.  In 1880 he's 34.  He has a wife, Elizabeth and 3 children; Bertie W., Adison (sp?) and James A.

I believe I also found him again in 1900 where is listed with what appears to be a new wife, Ella.  They've been married 13 years and have 3 children; Charles, Elizabeth and Willis.  I believe this is the same Henry because there is a son, Adison, living with them that matches the right age with the Adison in 1880.  I'm still trying to located him on the 1920 and 1930 census.   Lynn Aldinger Narrett.

Henry Elias Wood

Born: April 6, 1845

Birthplace: Java Village; Wyoming county, New York

His son James Arnold Wood is my grandfather.

 

He was the son of Pardon Arnold Wood and Julia Fuller.

 

Pardon was the son of John Dollison Wood (wife unknown)

I went back to Julia Fuller and her family was on the Mayflower in 1620.

 

I also have a contact with an Addison Wood, who lives near Milwaukee at this time; who is younger than I, but is a ½ brother to my father.  He is the son of James Arnold Wood.
