Hi Janis

I've never been in touch with Juju so don't have any alternative contact details for her, sorry.  I presume you've tried searching key names on other popular FH sites in case she's active elsewhere under a different user name?

It was a always long shot that our two lots of WOODs might be connected, and it doesn't surprise me that they're not, but thank you for taking the time to check.

Something that has just occurred to me - the 1939 register has come online since JuJu's original post, I don't know whether that might be of help to you?

best wishes
Jane :-)

There's a bap on A*y for EMW, giving parents.  Not the same couple as the two possibilities I've found (so far) for my Thomas.  But you never know, they could be related if we ever get further back.

Jones and Wood in the East End - I wish you luck!

Ha!

Funnily enough although Jones and Wood are difficult to research, the satisfaction you get when you winkle one of them out is way more than when I find a Happe or a Rondeau.
East London:
Happe/Hoppe (St. Georges in the East)
Stanley (middle name Thurston)
Rondeau (Spitalfields and Salford)
Jones (Bishopsgate - Thomas, Ostrich Feather Manufacturer)
Wood (London City)
