G. Marion Norwood Callam published three books. The Norwoods I: An introduction to their history. The Norwoods II: Heraldry and Brasses. The Norwoods III: A Chronological History. There may be additional copies of the last still available for purchase. You will find directions for ordering this book under BOOKS on the Norwood Family Page. The first two are out of print, but many people do have them. I have one of each. Some libraries have them. Best wishes, Dick Norwood
I am assuming that there are three Norwood Books. Are there copies of any of them available?

I'm new to the Norwood Family group. Just exactly where is the Norwood Family page? Thanks, Gail Meyer
Hi everyone. I've been really encouraged to see all the traffic on the Norwood Family Page from family all over the world. I've been especially interested in recent queries from English Norwoods tracing their families in England. Because of other interests and activities, I haven't been very active in genealogical research for many months, probably more than a year, but recently I received an interesting e-mail from Ariel Hessayon about her proposed entry to the New Dictionary of National Biography of Capt. Robert Norwood, a soldier on the Parliament side in the English Civil War, that reenergized me. Jim Dempsey already studied the case of Robert Norwood because of similarities of his story with that of Francis Norwood of Gloucester, Mass., whose descendants still don't know his origins. I don't know that we ever will, but as time goes by perhaps more will be uncovered to help identify him. But this message is to let you all know that Pat Crewe has produced an index in three parts for Ms. Callam's The Norwoods III. As you all know, this book does not contain an index and is difficult to search for that reason. Pat's indexes solve this problem. I have gone ahead and posted the indexes on the Norwood Family Page. You can find them on the left hand side of the main page just above the buttons for the various areas of the website. You can open them right from the main page. If you don't have the Norwoods III, but would like me to check an indexed item, I will be happy to do so. I hope others with the book might volunteer to do so too. That's all. I hope you are all well and continuing to try to find your Norwood ancestors and relatives. If you have any new discoveries to share, please do, here on our mailing list. If you want to add data or articles to the Norwood Family Page, please let me know. If you can, identify your earliest known ancestor--in the US, your immigrant ancestor. Thanks very much.

Thanks for your continued research. Jeanette Nadreau
Hi everyone. I just wanted to let you know that there is a new article posted on the Norwood Family Page: A biographer in England has prepared an entry for the New Dictionary of National Biography about Capt. Robert Norwood, a soldier on the Parliament side in the Civil War, who lived from 1610-1654. Jim Dempsey has looked into this man's life too, so his story isn't new to us, but the article I have posted provides many details which are historically interesting. It appears that Robert didn't have children, so he probably doesn't solve any of our research questions. I hope you'll take the time out for an interesting read. http://www.geocities.com/~rnorwood/tnfpexp.htm I've placed a link on the main page right at the bottom. Thanks, Dick Norwood
Which Norwood line is it? My wife line is from Valdosta, Georgia. Her great grandfather was John Wilkins Norwood born 1872?. The earlier information is muddled but they think his father was Theodore G. Norwood. Carl Brown Peachtree City

I went to a used book store in Stone Mountain, Ga., and found some interesting books. One is by Eleanor Davis McSwain. THE deNORTHWODE, NORWOOD FAMILY OF EARLY NEW ENGLAND AND EARLY SOUTHEAST UNITED STATES As this book doesn't have much on the Norwoods I'm researching, if any one is interested in reimbursing me for it please e mail me.

List..... I'm looking for information on Mary (nee FLETCHER) who mar. (first name unknown) NORWOOD. Not much info to go on but she was b. in NY (possible in Wayne Co.), ca. 1852 or 1857. Mary came to California around 1908. Any assistance will be most appreciated. Ralph Clouse, Sacramento
Hi! Time for another update of the ole web site. Took me longer then I had intended, but with the new info being added I had to break the first page up so it wouldn't be so cluttered. I still have some work to do but I didn't want to wait any longer to get up the new stuff. NEBRASKA Updated info on Wilson "Wilks" Norwood. Updated info on Lewis Norwood and included photo. NEW JERSEY Updated info on Richard Norwood from more census work. Added page for Elizabeth, daughter of Richard Norwood, and family. Added page for Anna, daughter of Richard Norwood, and family. NEW YORK (NEW JERSEY) Updated info on Andrew Norwood, his children and grand-children. Added deed abstract for the sale of Andrew Norwood's property. BARBADOS (NEW YORK) Added info on Andrew Norwood from published source. Feel free to give me some feedback on the new index page. I could use either the constructive criticism or the kudos. At first I wasn't sure I particularly liked the new look, but now I think it's growing on me (probably like a fungus). :) TAFN! Irene http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~norwood/

Kathy Norwood >> Hi Kathy, I too have a Norwood family in Arkansas: ELIZABETH NORWOOD, b GA- 1794, appears in the 1850 Census for Independence Co Arkansas, age 56, living with her son, WILLIAM age 23, also b GA and her son-in-law and daughter: Johnson and HARRIET Norwood Wright. Another daughter appears to be SUSAN, b 1831 in GA, m David M. Tucker in Independence Co Ark. William may have married Lucinda Autrey in Conway Co Ark. in 1883. An article in the Independence County Chronicle states that Elizabeth was a widow and had moved to Arkansas with the Wright family from Tennessee. The Wrights were from Dyer County TN, but I have found no evidence of the Norwood family there. In 1900 Harriet Norwood Wright lists her father's birthplace as England. I found this Georgia marriage record, but don't know if this is the right family: Elizabeth Williams m George Norwood, July 14, 1814, Jasper C o GA Thanks, Laine
HI! Do you happen to know anything about a Samuel NORWOOD. He was living in Dekalb Co., Alabama in the 1870s. Then I am told he went to Arkansas but then may or may not have returned to Alabama. Two of his daughters married into my BRYAN line. Martha NORWOOD married James R. BRYAN after his first wife died. That marriage took place in 1869 in Dekalb Co., AL. James BRYAN's son Joel BRYAN, married Martha's sister, Sarah NORWOOD in 1871 in Dekalb Co., AL. Have you ever come across these names? Thanks.

Is >there marital status information in this census? I think there is. This is what I initially thought. Especially when you see the different parental birth location info between Richard and Maria. Then there's the unlikely age difference between possible siblings. I have more couples than I can count that have children over a twenty-five year period, but I can't find one over a thirty year period. Unfortunately, I don't know much about Richard's family. I believe he's the oldest child of Cornelius Norwood and Elizabeth White. They were m. in 1802 in the same area that Richard was born in 1803 and Richard names his first son Cornelius. But I've only been able to find one baptism record related to this couple and that's for a son, William, born in 1811. Maybe she was m. to William. That would be a twenty-four year age difference between her and her husband, but then my great grandparents had a twenty-one year difference. This isn't exactly unheard of in this family. All that aside. The big problem is that the census lists her as single. Not married. Not widowed. I suppose it could be an error, but with Richard listed correctly as widowed right above her, I don't lean towards that explanation. Still a possibility though. Maria is not listed with Cyrus in 1900. Anna has already died by then so Maria being her family could have moved elsewhere. But then that's a twenty year gap so anything could have happened in that time frame. She could have died, married, be living with another relative, etc. (God, I miss the 1890 census.) No help there.
