Benjamin Wood

[Grocerpen]

Benjamin Wood 1811? - 1867. Lived in Lee Croft Rd, Sheffield in 1841 census. Trade was a Cooper and I’m assuming his father would also be a cooper.  Cannot find who is father is as it’s such a common name. Was thinking that if I found another Wood that was a Cooper, it may be his father. However, Sheffield trade directory 1829 registers Benjamin but no others with surname Wood.
Can anyone suggest another way of trying to find his parents? Thanks

Did he marry Ann Shepherd in Rotherham in 1832  .  Where do you have him in 1851

Hi. I have him married to Anne and living in Eccelsall Bierlow in 1851 census

Mrs Wood relict of the late Mr. Benjamin Wood, Cooper, Leacroft age 63

ADDED Where does the 1851 say he was born

[rosie99]

Your Benjamin in 1841 is living at Lee Croft.  The Benjamin mentioned in Mrs Woods death announcement died the year before.  Perhaps this couple were your Benjamin's grand parents

Thank you- where would I look for the newspaper articles?
I couldn’t see J Wood in the 1829 directory under coopers?
