    3. I, too, would be interested in any information anyone on the List might have concerning this CABELL (sometimes spelled Cabble) WOOD found living (and apparently dieing) in the Amherst Co.,VA area. It has been hinted that this Cabell may not have been his "given" name - so that, some one of you might know him as another "Wood" - possibly with an initial "C" somewhere in his name. And, since he was married to ELIZABETH PHILIPS/PHILLIPS after the age of 34/35 you may even have him married to someone else. Though doubtful he had any other children - since his Will only mentions his youngest three born to to him by Elizabeth ("Betsy") and the daughter of their oldest, unmarried daughter, MARY WOOD, who died BEFORE Cabell died in 1862. (This granddaughter of Cabell Wood, AURORA WOOD, was my greatgrandfather's mother). Cabell & Elizabeth (Phillips) Wood's children are named as: MARY A. WOOD b: abt. 1823, OLIVER C. WOOD b: abt. 1825, ELIZABETH WOOD (MITCHELL) b: abt 1828, and JAMES A. WOOD b: abt. 1835. It is reported that the oldest daugther, Mary Wood may have been engaged and about to marry a "WEAKLY/WEEKLY" before she died. OLIVER C. WOOD married a MARGARET CASKEY and JAMES A. WOOD married an EMILY TYGRET. Anyone? Thank you. Pam pamjt@saa.net
