Welcome! My name is Shannon. I am a descendant of the Wood Family who settled in Gloucester, Massachusetts. I have only been able to go back to the 1700's to my 6th-Great-Grandfather Charles Parsons Wood, Sr. His son Charles Parsons Wood, Jr. was one of many fishermen heros in Gloucester's Great Storm of 1839. Charles Parsons Wood, Jr.'s son George S. Wood was an Expressman, Captain of the Ship The Banner, Private in the First Regiment MA Volunteer Infantry during the Civil War, and a Police Officier in Boston's Chinatown. If you have any additional information or have questions for me - please mailto: FamilyBranches@hotmail.com. Click onto Genealogical Links for other useful websites.
