WOOD -
I am working on the Wood side of my family tree and and stuck at a stand still. I have
found the name of my great great great grandfather but I cannot find any information on him. All
I have is his name was Thomas C Wood and was married to a woman named Rebecca. They had a
son named Robert Alexander Wood and he had a son named Otis Rucker Wood in turn, he
had a son, my grandfather Everette Kent Wood. I know that Robert Alexander Wood was
born around 1862 in Virginia. From Otis Rucker Wood on, I know for a fact, our family has
resided in Bedford County. Any help that anyone can provide would be greatly appriciated.

GRANT -
Looking for William H Grant Sr. born abt 1818 to Alexander D and Rebecca Grant in
Nelson County VA, died abt 1901 - last residence (over 30 years) Charlemont, Bedford VA... If I
could find WHERE he is buried I would maybe find out WHEN he died, which could open a lot of
doors! Anyone living in that area like to wander through cemeteries??? He was married to
Catherine Susan, Eliza Jane, and Mary C - the first two preceeded him in death.
