We are looking for any descendents of a John Wood who was living in Knox County in around 1792 included a copy of some I have found below.


At the outset the taverns begin to do a thriving business, as many as four

houses of entertainment being" advertised by John Chisholm, Alexander

Carmichael, John Wood, and Peter McNamee. Other occupations also receive

encouragement, inasmuch as jewelers, tanners, tailors and the butcher acquaint

the public with their willingness to serve them, while well-diggers and tanners

are advertised for and promised "good encouragement."



If anyone is related could you please help us figure out if this might be related to our relative.
