    3. Barb, I have been researching this line for ten years. There are a lot of descendants and a lot of mixed up info. My mother is a descendant of Peter Wood, my dad is a descendant of Alexander and Jeremiah, and my husband is a descendant of Alexander also. Peter, Alexander and Jeremiah are brothers and all sons of Richard "Dickie" Wood. Jeremiah's daugther, Lucinda Wood married Alexander's son, Richard A. Wood. These are my dad's grandparents. I have collected quite a bit of information hoping someday to publish it. I am stuck because most people claim Stephen Wood and Ann Johnson as the parents of John Wood (father of Richard ) grandparents of Richard "Dickie" Wood. I have found this is NOT TRUE. Stephen and Ann did have a son, John but his line is well documented and does not include Richard. So, for the last couple of years, I have been searching for the beginnings of John and Nelly, supposedly the parents of Richard. I am very interested in the Census records. Are they online for Bedford, Franklin and Patrick? I visited there on my vacation this summer. The grave with the 4 wives (I'm not convinced of the wives yet because of the dates. This monument was erected in the 1930's by the folks who held the Wood General Reunion. I've already found some of their info is wrong.) and the old homeplace are just off the Blue Ridge Parkway near Floyd. Maybe we can get a thing going here at the Patrick site and sort all this out? I hope so. I am posting my familytreemaker site here but I have not added info to it for a long while. So, I may have more now.
