Can someone please provide a source for the father of this Richard. Jonas "Orum" Wood was known to have only two sons which were both mentioned in his will; Jonas jr., and John. I have never found mention of a Richard.

I will take a look. I had adopted this profile so I do not have the original documentation.

Parents have been removed. Richard may be son of a Jacob Wood, looking to confirm sources.
