โš  His birth does not match the treeJohn is aged 36 and born in Glasgow. The tree has John Wood born 7 January 1821 in Dundee, which would make him 40. The ages here are rounded and Thomas was born in Girvan, which fits the marriage there in 1848, so this looks like the right family, but his own birth needs checking.
โ„น The wife's nameShe is Susanah here. The tree has Susanna Seaton, born 1829, who would be 31.
โ„น Thomas is the link to the GavigansThomas, the 12-year-old rove piecer born at Girvan, is the father of Agnes Wood, who married Hugh Gavigan.
