| Text | I am looking for the parents of Sanford Wood who was born in 1835 in VA and died in 1912 at Silver Hill, Wetzel County, WV. In the 1850 census, Sanford Wood is shown as a 15 year old living in the household of James Wood age 85 and Sarah Wood age 75. Were these people (James and Sarah) Sanford's grandparents? James and Sarah were both born in Maryland. They lived and owned land in Greene County, Pa (Whitely Township) before moving to Wetzel County in the 1820's. They had sons named William and Adam that I know of. I also am seeking information on the James A. Wood who founded Silver Hill in 1825. I would like information on this individual. If anyone could help me with these questions I would be much abliged. Sanford Wood married Sevilla Bryner, a Greene County, Pa native. Sevilla was the daughter of David L. Bryner and Mary Ann Rayburn Bryner. Her parents were natives of Fayette County, Pa. | |
