Just a note: There is a branch of Norwoods from Maine that ended up in Fayetteville, Arkansas, (via Illinois) so if you trace some Norwoods back to Arkansas (or Illinois), you may have roots in New England. I have checked for recent names and do not find them in Maureen Norwood's "Francis Norwood, Immigrant to Massachusetts and His Descendants (1635-1987)". I will always check this book when there are queries related to Arkansas, Illinois, Kansas, or Texas. So far none of my searches has been fruitful, but I think because the family is well-documented and most of them probably know their ancestry already. Best, Dick Norwood
