William Wood's History

Uncover new discoveries and connections today by sharing about people & moments from yesterday.
  • Introduction

    William was born between 1730 and 1752 possibly in Halifax (or Lunenburg) County, Virginia. His wife is unknown. They had at least one child. I first learned of the existence of this William Wood by the fact that his son was mentioned as “William Wood Jur.” in the will of John Salmon. Furthermore, this information gives evidence to the location of William Wood in Halifax County. Also, this county was created from Lunenburg County in 1752; therefore, any activity occurring prior to that date had occurred in Lunenburg County. The birth date given for this William Wood – 1769 – disagrees with the 1850 US census taken August 16 in Campbell County, Georgia, which indicates a “Wm Wood” at 80 years old, and his wife “Jane Wood” at 70 years old. This places the birth year of William J. Wood at about 1770. Therefore, the birth year of his father would roughly be between 1730 and 1752; lacking source documentation, I am led to question the birth date of 1769.
