    3. Would anyone have any info on the WOOD family of Glastonbury 1790-1800-1810-1820? All I have on my great-great grandmother , Hannah Wood, calcualted b. 1800, is that she md Nathan Prentice of Shaftsbury, in 1817 or so and removed to Broome Co NY. Have never been able to find but one reference to WOOD in Glastonbury, (and to Hannah's possible father), and that was in the 1790 FED Census for Glastonbury which showed a "Coffin" (?misprint, or nickname?) WOOD. There was later a Joseph WOOD who is listed in the same FED census with Hannah and her husband Nathan at Broome Co /1820...It's possible this could be a brother , but can't get much farther with this. "Coffin" given name could refer to someone who was a coffinmaker, using the beautiful wood of VT, I suppose. Anybody have anyu thoughts on that? Thanks, Jeannette
