... No resident minister had located among them until after a few years, Rev. Abraham WOOD of the Episcopal Church, was sent out as a missionary from England, and located on a lot of Glebe land at Douglas Harbor, Grand Lake. (Queens Co.) ... After years of labor and toil he removed to White's Point near his church, where he remained until age and infirmities incapacitated him for active work. He then removed to St. John where he died a few years ago. With no lavish expenditures and the most strict economy, he was the professor of a comfortable home, where he raised a family of four sons and four daughters. Two of the former died of consumption; one was killed in the west while engaged in mining; the youngest at last accounts was living at or near St. John. Anne WOODS and Eliza WOODS married Dr. PETERS of Queens Co and Dr. WOODFORD of the same place. A son of the former is a clerk in a St. John drug store. Mary WOODS married Andrew WHITE, a grandson of the oldest Vincent WHITE and Jane WOODS, the eldest, never married. She died at the age of 60 in St. John a few years ago. The wife and mother of this family was Miss MOUNT from Nusquash (St. John) near St. John. (see original)
