    1. [WOODS-L] Orphaned Wood/Woods anywhere
    2. Lequia
    3. I'm looking for the lost siblings to my orphan Herbert/Bert Wood who was the oldest child of LeRoy Wood and Ellen Forrest/DeForrest. The youngest children were twins; Dee Etta Wood and ?unknown male twin. If you have a Wood ancestor born between 1868 and 1882 anywhere- it could be one of the lost Wood orphans. I believe that some of them ended up in Arkansas and Missouri - at least one in Oklahoma. Family Characteristics include short stature - 5 ft. 5" to 5 ft. 8". Would like to identify the lost male twin. He lived in Oklahoma sometime after 1970 I think. He would have been very elderly by this time since he was born in 1882. Probably died in Oklahoma. Birthdate would be September 1882- birthplace possibly Arkansas, but not necessarily. These children may or may not have ridden the orphan trains. Please contact Sheri LeQuia at lequia@elite.net I'm going to put this family together again ! Grandma was raised by this orphan and it is her life goal to see this mystery solved.
