Yesterday I forwarded a list of Wood (s) marriages for Wake Co. to this list in hopes that it might help someone find a link. I guess in my haste to share it, I plain forgot that not everyone is psychic and would automatically just KNOW which Wake County it was. :) This particular Wake County is Wake County, NC, which is located in north central NC. Wake was formed in 1770 from Johnston, Orange and (I believe) Cumberland Counties. Raleigh, the county seat and state capitol was founded about 1792. In 1881, Durham County was created from Western Wake and Eastern Orange Counties. Apologies on that - we native Tarheels can be so state-centric. <grin>
