I believe that John Augustus Wood was born in Fort William, Bengal while his father, John Sullivan Wood, was stationed there, ie he is not Scottish, but of English descent. Baptism date is given in FamilySearch as 17 Jul 1818, Calcutta, Bengal, India. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ScotGirl52 (talk • contribs) 18:02, 1 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
