Joseph Wood

Origins

THOMAS WOOD, of Yorkshire, England, arrived with his brother, John Wood, in the "Shield" in 1678, and settled at Burlington, N. J., where he married Mary Howli (?) in 1685, by whom he had two sons and three daughters. He owned large tracts of land border- ing on AUowaynes(?) Creek, which he willed to his wife and children. He died between 1709 and 1713, his will having been proved in the latter year, and he appointed his son Thomas his sole executor, I am unable to trace the descendants of Thomas Wood, as this branch of the family seems to have died out by 1750.
