I am hoping that someone on the list will be able to help me. My g grandfather, William WOOD (b. abt. 1858) and his wife Julia Anne (Annie) MAIDMENT (b.abt. 1861, lived in the Durham area for some years. They were both originally from England and were married October 16, 1878 in Hurstpierpoint, Sussex ENG. I'm not sure when they came to Canada, but assume it was shortly after their marriage. I'm told that they immigrated to Lanark, but I have no proof of that. All of their children (not sure about the last one) were born in Grey Co.: Florence May WOOD - b. January 22, 1880 at Mt. Florest Edith Ellen WOOD - b. July 27, 1882 at Durham David Charles WOOD - b. January 4, 1885 at Durham Elsie Irene WOOD - b. February 15, 1888 at Durham William Edwin WOOD - b. March 28, 1890 at Durham Ernest Adolphus WOOD - b. September 13, 1892 at Durham Horace Jasper WOOD - b. August 25, 1894 at ??? The family moved to Winnipeg, MB sometime before David Charles WOOD was killed in a train accident in November of 1902. At the time of the accident, the family was already living in Winnipeg. According to the 1911 census, William WOOD's occupation was a Railway Employee. My g g grandfather, Wisdom (William Wisdom ??) WOOD and his wife Ellen also immigrated to Canada from England. I'm not sure if they came at the same time William and Annie did, nor am I sure where they settled. I am told that Wisdom WOOD died May 4, 1912, and Ellen died October 17, 1932. I'm not sure where either of them died, or where they are buried. Any information, suggestions, or help would be appreciated. I seem to get confused about Durham Co. and Durham town. which is in Grey Co. (I think!) Kathy Wood Swan River MB kawood@mts.net
