The will of his father dated 1552 names Richard therefore he was still alive at this point. There is a common view that he died in 1588. What other evidence is there for his date of death?

m. Ambler, Margaret

26 Jul 1540

Estimate of birth from the last will of his farther Richard Wood born about 1480.

Caution: inconclusive information to identify the mother of Edmund Wood: The baptism records of Halifax have several children of different men named Richard Wood.

A - Edmund Wood baptized 6 March 1546 Halifax, son of Richard Wood mother's name not given, married Jenet Hurst - this is the one that some believe to be the father of Edmund Wood who married Martha Lum aka Lome
B - Edmund Wood baptized 4 Feb 1549 Halifax, probable son of Richard Wood[1] ["of Sowerby"] and his wife perhaps Margaret Ambler OR a second wife, grandson of Richard Wood and Christabell (unknown) - no further info on this Edmund.
