What sources do we have for his parents?

A Sons of the American Revolution application is the only source I have currently.

Wood-20729 and Wood-3698 appear to represent the same person because: They have the same name and birth date. One profile includes the correct spouse and children, and is well-sourced. The other profile includes the correct parents, but has no sources and has the wrong date of death.
