I thought I would bring it to your attention that there are two J. Wood

but not sure where they were before that.

>James' dad was John Wood, b. 1818 Washington Co, TN. This John Wood was a Union soldier during the civil war, was a prisoner at Cahaba, and was being transported back home on the Sultana steamboat. You can read about both these subjects online. The Sultana was transporting many of the prisioners being released, when it exploded. John was a survivor, having been rescued and treated for scalds. Gene E. Salecker wrote "Disaster on the Mississippi", if you're interested in a book on the subject, or you can go to Rootsweb Archives, and plug in Sultana, or disasters. I found Cahaba Prison simply by keying in Cahaba Prison on Yahoo search site. This John Wood was married to Mary Jane (went by Jane) McKeehan, b. 1838 Washington Co,TN. In fact, I only found info on John by looking for her after exhaustive searches for him.

>Gene's book mentions a James E. Wood, nephew of John as being with him in Cahaba and on the Sultana. I often wonder if it was his nephew, or possibly his son, My g-grandfather. He would have been old enough to have fought that war. Hopefully I will find information on that some time, one way or the other. I am not criticising Gene's account of the passengers. It was a very confusing time and records were not necessarily perfect. It's just that I haven't found a nephew by that name, but did find a son, so I'm just wondering.

"At the birth of the Sun, and his brother the Moon, their Mother died. So the Sun gave to the earth her body from which was to spring all life, And he drew forth from her breast the stars and he threw them into the night sky to remind him of her soul."
