Susanna and Margaret Peggy Dozier were sisters.Some records show that when Margaret Dozier married John Wood in 1752 she was Margaret Dozier Baker the widow of Samuel Baker. On April 2, 1751, Mark Thornton was deeded 150 acres of land by his sister-in-law Margaret (Peggy) Baker, widow of Samuel Baker who died the same year (Deed Book 2, p. 378 ).By 1752, Margaret Baker had married (2) John Wood (O. B. 2.5 A, p. 325). Bartholomew Baker, son of Margaret Baker, chose Mark Thornton as his guardian in 1753 (O. B. 2.5 B, p. 438 )and in 1758 receipted Mark Thornton for his property at which time he gave his birth as 1737. (O. B. 5, p. 114).Most of this work was done by Elma Wood a genealogist from Halifax, Va. living in W.Va. in 1959.
