Bethia BALDWIN, before 1729, place unknown --- * Origin: CPAFUG: MD(301)Colmbia 290-9530 SlvrSpng 989-8960 (Opus Date: Sat Dec 08 1990 15:49:29 From: Sandy Clunies To: Judie Delaine Subj: Paul WOOD(S) Attr: genealogy ------------------------------- Bingo, Judie! Found Paul in the "Wood Family Index". It's listed as WOOD not WOODS. Paul WOOD, son of Jonathan & Lydia (GOODENOW) WOOD, b. 29 Feb 1764, d. June 1834. Of New Braintree, MA. And it references NEHGR 1921.Now these birth-death dates are 1 year off from yours - but a Paul born to a Jonathan that close MUST be the one! Next generation: Jonathan WOOD b. 1728, (son of James & Dorothy (BARNES) WOOD) d. 10 Sep 1807 as WOODS. Of Sudbury and New Braintree MA. M. Jan 1748 Lydia GOODENOW, b. 21 Nov 1729, d. 7 Sep 1802 (dau. of Jonathan & Lydia (RICE) GOODENOW. CH:of Jonathan & Lydia: Eunice, Relief, Phebe, Dorothy, John, Paul, Meliscent, Jonathan, Lydia, Silas, Elizabeth. If you are following siblings of Paul WOOD - they're all individually covered in WFI. Holler if you want them. Next generation: James WOOD, b. 16 Oct 1694, of Sudbury and Marlborough MA (son of John and Lydia (RICE) WOOD), d. 10 Apr 1772. (again refers to NEHGR 1921). m. 19 Mar 1719 Dorothy BARNES b. 24 May 1698, d. 10 Nov 1734 (dau. John and Hannah (HOW) BARNES). m. 2d. 20 Jan 1735 Hepsibah EAGER b. 4 May 1703, d. 31 Dec 1768 (dau. Zerubbabel & Hannah (KERLEY) EAGER). It lists these ch. for James WOOD - 1st wife Dorothy BARNES: David, James, Jonathan. with 2nd wife Hepsibah EAGER: Hepsibah, Aaron, Moses, George, Dorothy, Lucy. Next generation: John WOOD, b. 8 May 1641, d. 5 Apr 1716 (as "WOODS") (son of John and Mary (PARMENTER) WOOD). Of Sudbury MA (Constable there 1677) and Marlborough MA. m. Lydia RICE b. 10 Dec 1649, d. 24 Sep 1723 (dau. Edward & Anna (BENT) RICE). CH: John, Lydia, Hannah, Joseph, Sarah, Silence, Benjamin, James. Next generation: John WOOD, b.6 Feb 1609/10 ENG, d. 10 Jul 1678 (son of James WOOD). Refs: NEHGR 1906. M. Mary PARMENTER, b. 1610, d. 1690 (dau. John & Bridget ( ) PARMENTER). CH: Mary, Dorcas, Hannah, John, Frances, James, Catherine, Issac. So you see, it's another line for you down from John & Mary (PARMENTER) WOOD. Lydia NEWTON and Winslow WOODS were kin thru the WOOD(S) lines. Check those two volumes of the NEHGR for more data. Sorry it's not one of *my* two WOOD immigrants (Edward WOOD to Charlestown, and William WOOD to Concord MA) ! ---Sandy --- msged 1.99S ZTC * Origin: GreyEagle_Point/346 <* Derwood, MD *> (1:109/312.346)
