Cathie,
This is quite exciting. Your posting, or rather the main commentary on it, showed up on my email last week when I was in Alabama and I didn't notice it until tonight. I have long wondered what happened to Daniel Wood, but never thought to look in Michigan. Did Daniel die there or did he continue the treck West?
My great great grandfather --John Wood-- was the youngest child of Jonathan and Sarah (Burpee) Wood of Jaffrey. He went on to Wisconsin and finally to western Iowa. I have never found out what happened to his father, Jonathan Wood (chr. 1768 in Lunenburg, oldest sone of soon-to-be Revolutionary War solider John Wood (1744-1799). Jonathan sold the mills in Jaffrey in 1818, eveidnetly after he had already moved to some extent to Oneida County, NY. He's on the 1820 census in Oneida County, but by 1830 he's gone. There's a Jonathan Wood on the census there, but it's his oldest son Jonathan Jr., with his wife (or widow?) SArah and the younger children.
I have found no estate proceeding for him in Oneida County of any kind. All of a sudden I'm wondering wheter he might have attempted yet another move West and passed away in, say, Ohio or Michigan.
His wife, youngest daughter and second surviving son Anthony are all buried together in the Methodist Cemetery on Maynard Drive in the Town of Marcy, Oneida Conty. Jonathan Wood Jr., as you may know, moved to Jefferson Conty where he built the mills at Woods Settlement, now on Camp Drum (the military base). As of 1981, the last time I was in Watertown, they were still standing.
When did your line get out ot Utah? If you have noticed Halll's tree farm in Payson, near the west freeway interchange, that's owned by my inlaws.
Please email me at nathan44@aol.com, or at workk -- bwood@wmblaw.org. What's your email address?
I apologize for the "Luxembourg" reference on the website. I showed my daughter the page that said "lunenburg" to type inot familysearch, but she coulnt' read my writing and must have thought I meant that the name of our progenitor's fine Massachusetts town was named for the smallest of the benelux countries rather than the ancient north German principality of Lunenburg.
Looking forward to hearing from you---
Barry Wood
