Wood Family Bible

These records were handwritten in a Pocket Bible that belonged to William Samuel Wood (born January 21, 1854, Maryland, died June 19, 1940, Baltimore, Maryland). The family had tobacco plantations in Southern Maryland in Anne Arundel and possibly Calvert or St. Mary's Counties. The Pocket Bible is in the possession of Catherine Wood Vitilio, granddaughter of William Samuel.
