Biography

British History, Sanderstead, states that a Nicholas son of John Atwood, d. 1586, was buried in the church. It did not state when the family first resided at Sanderstead Court. It could be that Sir John was the first of the family there.

Sanderstead Court, Surrey: "On the opposite wall is a small brass of a group of ten children, apparently of the same date as the last, and probably originally belonging to it. As placed, however, a connexion is assumed, incorrectly, with the nine children mentioned on the inscription beneath, which reads as follows: 'Here lyeth Nicholas Wood, the thirde sonne of John at Wood of Sandersted Corte who served Quene Elizabeth sens the second yeare of her Rayne . & deceassed the xiiith of May . 1586 and lefte behinde him a wife & children ix, vii sonns: harmon . John . Nicholas . Thom[as] . James . John . Richarde . Allis . & Mary.'" [1]

According to Charles Atwood, John leased the manor of Coulsdon from the abbey of St. Peter at Chertsey, Surrey for the period 1434-1455. The abbey held the manor from before the Domesday (1086) until the dissolution.

I have posted a comment to the question on the G2G. In short: the name is middle English, of Saxon origin. Atte is a prefix meaning of or in and wode is a middle English word which we would recognise today as wood. If interested you may review Bosworth's work; Dictionary of the Anglo-Saxon language. In Euroaristo we would drop the prefix and the surname would be either Wode or Wood. Given the date of the profile, the name Wode would be preferred as it is the name that would have been in use at the time.

Woods-4047 and Wode-1 are not ready to be merged because: Wode or Atte Wode should be final name after consideration by the EuroAristo project.

Atte Wode-1 and Wode-1 appear to represent the same person because: same family relationships, dates are unsupported on Wode-1
