land oil the Merrimac river for ship

The next generation of Atwoods was
more fortunate as far as long life was
concerned. John had eight children.
The Oldest married Mary Wood, and
was killed about 1855 near Crown
Point by an Indian in the French and
Indian var. He left three children,
William, the second son, had seven
children, and Joshua had 10. His young
est son, Moses. went to Haverhill to
live. Just after the Arnold treason he
volunteered to serve in the army, and
went to West Point, where he died in
1908.
One OF the Atwoods, David, who was
born a few years after the death of
Moses, was pioneer of Wisconsin. He
was born at Bedford, N. H., and
worked a a boy on his fathers farm.

This hard life told on his health, and

on a sheep farm went to Madison, Wis.
There he was editor of The Express,

Henrietta, Edward and William have

From the time they we're first heard
Of in England the Atwoods were OF q
good deal of prominence. In 1913 three
brothers, Peter, John and Goeffrey
we're tenants of the Abbey OF Chertsey.
They leased an estate "at the wood"
place still in existence, and now
called Wood Place, and from this place
hey took their surname, Atte Wode.
But for 800 years the name appears In
4 great many forms, as often Wood as
Atwood. and 1t is not until the time OF
he immigration of the family to this
country that II is finally fixed as 1t Is
now spelled. One OF the family who
was sergeant-at.arms 10 Edward Ill.
IS referred to in several ways, as
Ricardus or Richard del Wode, Attic
Wode and OF the Wode. The name also
appears At Woode, Atwood, Atwood,
At Wood, a Wood, de Wood, de Wude,
and Atwood.
In 1857 Peter Attic Wode obtained a
license from the bishop for a private
chapel at Wood Place. Fifty years be-
,ore that the family had succeeded to
Sanderstead Court. a manor house not
