Note the difference in the DOB as stated by Pilson versus what you have. "The cemetery number in Pilson's book is # 519. Richard Wood (FATHER DICKEY), Pioneer of Wood's Gap, b. 1772, d. 1856. (According to the marker, Richard is buried in the middle, with a wife on either side, and one at the head and another at the foot.)" Gloria raglady@aol.com
