*{The daughters who did not marry {with the exception of the 11th child Anna} were said to have died of TB in early adulthood and buried in the family cemetery along with their parents. I do not know the cause of death for the two younger sons, but my Great grandfather, George R. WOOD, is the only male to carry on the WOOD family name from this family group.

It is assumed that Anna RICE WOOD died from complications in childbirth and perhaps the daughter Anna, also died shortly thereafter, but I have no documentation to prove exactly when she died as there are no grave stones in the cemetery.}
