    … Ann _____, born about 1637; died in Rowley 29 December 1714. Within a year of his marriage Thomas was seen with his wife's relatives in official records, but the omission of Ann's maiden name in the Rowley marriage record masks her identity. Despite the fact that Ann, the wife of Thomas Wood, Susanna, the wife of John Todd and Mary, the wife of John Grant, were sisters, studying each of them separately and together has not solved their origin.

    Mary (Grant) was sister of Ann wife of Thomas Wood, and of Susanna wife of John Todd, but the editor [Donald Lines Jacobus] cannot accept the conclusion that these sisters were daughters of William Hunt (The American Genealogist, 21:128-133), nor the statement of Mrs. Holman (The Pillsbury Ancestry, 1001) that Mary was Mary (Hunt) Todd.

  3. ↑ Study of the Identity of Thomas Wood, of Rowley, Mass., and His Wife, Ann (1944) TAG, Vol. 21, p. 128, mentioned above, makes case that Thomas Wood's wife was Ann Hunt with several circumstantial items, concluding "it became so apparent, that Ann Wood was the daughter of William Hunt, of Concord, Mass., that it seemed worth while to present the evidence", which it does. William Hunt of Concord, Massachusetts and the Supposed Wood Connection (1954) TAG, Vol. 30, p. 101, suggests that all the relationships mentioned in the 1944 article can be explained other ways (based on the vagueness of relationship terms in typical colonial usage), and points out that two wills (William's, and his probable uncle, Robert Best) name various children of William Hunt of Concord, and neither mentions these sisters, only an Elizabeth and a Hannah.
