     John Wood left for the States in we believe 1860. A child was born to Louisa in 1861 and if it was his this fixes the date. His father died in 1863 leaving a useful will. Their eldest child Samuel born in Quarndon went with him. Sam married in the States and had two children Sam and Elizabeth shown on the 1881 census. I have not been able to ascertain when Sam junior or his sister returned to the States but have the census returns showing him there for 1910 and 1920. Family lore says that both John made many journeys across the Atlantic but we think these were mainly Sam. Sam senior married three times and Sam junior also married, both were to American born girls. I have never seen the name Bull on the USA census returns. I wonder if the Wood girl mentioned could have been Elizabeth, born c. 1872? I shall examine the tree to see if there are any other Wood daughters missing.

It is odd but Sam does not come up as a part of the family stories, in fact neither of them does. Sam the elder became an American citizen and only had children with his first wife. His younger brother, another John had several sons, one of whom went to work for Uncle Sam and another, Clifford, went to Canada in 1912. It may be possible to look for emigrants on the Ellis island site but it helps to know an approximate date. It would seem to be between 1885ish onwards. I think very little exists that early. The Woods lived at Rodsley Court farm and another I forget but it should show up on the census.

The Wrights are connected by Louisa and John's daughter marrying into their family.
