His wife may be Sarah Stiles. An online (unsourced) family tree says she was from Plymouth, Devon, England but other (unsourced) trees say she was from New York. I cannot find a source for her surname. She appears to have been born around 1827 and according to census records in New York. Her Find A Grave record exists. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/65904767/sarah-a-woods
