George Wood
« on: Sunday 21 May 06 13:34 BST (UK) »
My Great grandfather was George Wood who in later census always stated he was born in Stroud Glos. According to the census he was born sometime between 1829 & 1834.  On his marriage to Mary Ann Rock in Kingswinford 1852 he states he is a boatman as was his father also named George. I would like to find George in the 1841 & 51 census and to try and confirm his parentage and birth/baptism date so I can progress with that particular line. He eventually moved up to Cumbria. Can anyone help me with this? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

There is NO record of a baptism in Stroud for a George WOOD 1829-1834.
