| Notes |
...John Wood, born in Pennsylvania, and his son, John H. Wood, a lad of fifteen years, came to the area of Hamer Twp. in april, 1829. They farmed a year before the father purchased the David Sullivan homestead. It was located west of the Caleb Chapmen home, in the eastern section of the township. In 1830, Wood sent for his wife, Sarah and their children. The eldest daughter, already married, remained in the east, the other fourteen children came west with their mother. They lived on the farm until 1843, when the farm was turned over to the son, John H. Wood, and the elderly parents moved into Danville. The pioneers, John and Sarah Wood, were both born in the year 1781, and were the parents of sixteen children. She died July 17, 1846, and he lived until Aug. 31, 1847. They were buried in the Redkey Cemetery.
...In 1848, John H. Wood established a mercantile store in Danville and operated it until 1878. That year, he moved to a farm he had purchased just after the Civil War. The first wife of J. H. Wood was Hannah, daughter of Thomas Colvin, by whom he had six children. After her death, he married Margaret Ann Roush and they were the parents of ten children. The home erected by J. H. Wood on Main St. in Danville was the first large swelling in the village.
...John H. Wood, born in 1814, died Aug. 2, 1883, after a very useful life as a father and a citizen. Hes second wife, Margaret (Roush) Wood, survived until Oct. 29, 1901.
