About This Book
A rather dry and scholarly book exploring the family tree of Nehemiah Wood, patriot, of Shenandoah Valley, VA. Hardcover, in a large format (letter size) and typed on a pre-Word Processor typewriter, this book is a great resource for members of Nehemiah's large group of descendents who want to research their origins.
It's hard to know how accurate all of his research was -- it certainly contradicts other works from earlier in the century -- but he documented what he could, and I'm very happy that my father bought me my own copy, and copies for each of my children. The publication in 1980 means that there is a great deal of activity in the family not recorded, since the research is no almost 30 years old, but I recommend it to anyone who is as obsessive-compulsive about genealogy as I am.
