I've been doing research on the descendents of my STEVENS line in IN.
William STEVENS' dau, Lulu M., married Jesse Albert WOOD, who lived in
Shoals for quite a while, before moving to MD (after retirement?). According
to his obit in MD, it said the funeral service would be in Shoals...so, my
question is: can anyone on this list who lives locally look up his obit in
Shoals? I'm presuming there would at least be a funeral notice, but I'm
hoping for an obit, also, as I want to find out whatever happened to his two
children, John and Jeanne (m BELL).
In case anyone else is researching this line, here's Jesse WOOD's obit from
MD:
Published in the Carroll County Times, Wednesday, January 14, 1987:
"Jesse A. Wood, 97, of Westminster"
"Jesse Albert Wood, of Westminster, formerly of Shoals, Ind., died Tuesday,
Jan. 13, at Westminster Nursing and Convalescent Center. Born in Bedford,
Ind., he was the husband of Lulu S. Wood of Westminster. He was retired as a
county agricultural agent in Indiana. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge
Scottish Rule and Shoals Methodist Church. Surviving in addition to his wife
are five grandchildren. Funeral services will be in Shoals, Ind., at the
convenience of the family. Pritts Funeral Home and Chapel, 412 Washington
Road, Westminster, is in charge of arrangements."
