Thanks for stopping by and visiting our site. Please explore and see if you find any connections to your ancestors. If you do, I would enjoy hearing from you. I have been involved in our familys genealogy for about 15 years by following up on the extensive work my father, Mervel Wood, developed. I'm also indebted to many others who have provided key information and family stories.
The Wood ancestors are a mix of mostly English and German with a little French tossed in. Our earliest Wood ancestor was Henry Wood (Atwood) and he arrived in Plymouth, Massachusetts about 1635. His three brothers also immigrated at about the same time. I participate in the Atwood DNA family group and my DNA lines up nicely with many others who are descendants of the four brothers.
