Tom Could this family be related to the Shedd family that was in the north west corner of Limestone Co., that Shedd Cemetery was named for. I am not even sure Shedd Cem. is in Limestone Co. it may be in Hill or McLennan. I do not have a Wood of any name that is the age of yours. All the Wood families I have now are all born around the 1880 time frame. Sorry Pat Oates in TX At 09:27 AM 4/6/2001 -0400, you wrote: >I am researching the family of J. B. Wood or Woods.
