- "Between 1820-1830 Nancy Corley Wood, widow of William Wood II, paid taxes on 50 acres of land that had been surveyed by Peter Shepherd. Shepherd had entered many surveys in the Mill Creek area. No actual deed or lease has ever been located for William Wood II or Nancy Corley Wood [1786-aft.1859]. The land, however, is almost surely the 50 acres sold by Henry Davidage to William Wood II [1771/1773-1819], the husband of Nancy Corley Wood [1786-aft.1859], witnessed on August 8, 1815 and delivered more than two years later on September 8, 1817.
