** Note: because the above Mary A. Wood and Emily Wood have different birthplaces listed (not Eastwood and Canewdon respectively), it is needed to get the birth certificate of any of the younger children to verify that the mother’s maiden name is Pickingill.
Also needed is to get the Marriage certificate of William Wood and Mary Ann Pickingill to find out more about William Wood’s origins.
It seems that this family is not found in the 1911 Census.
