Woods in Glossop - Page 1

This page shows my Wood ancestors in Glossop in Derbyshire, England (based mainly of the Parish Registers). I am indebted to my cousin Bev Sierpina for the entries from sources other than the Parish Registers and help in analysing the data. All being well the analysis is accurate but if there are mistakes then I apologise. Like everyone else, I'm human (honest) so please use this list as it is intended and check back against the original documents to be sure. Happy hunting.
