Posted on: Caroline Co. Va Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Va/Caroline/1860 Surname: POATES, WOOD ------------------------- Hello Dawn, seems family is showing up all over. My grandmother was Rosa Lee Poates Wood. Her brother, one of many sibblings was Lt. Charles Wood. They are from The Caroline Co. Lots of history of them around Ruther Glen, Virginia. Also have come across a relative that comes off the Golia Poates (Rosa's sister) line. We do have info on this family. Ed Wood Seattle, Wa.
