Greenwoods of Stillington Hi, what a great website you have. I'd like to introduce myself and share my story. My Great (x5) grandfather was Thomas Greenwood, recorded as a Yeoman of Stillington in the Baines Directory of 1823. He married Elizabeth Wood in 1776. I also have his will, which lists all the Greenwoods in Stillington. From my researchs I think most of the family moved to Foston, Appleton Le Street and my line to Bulmer.His daughter Mary, married Thomas Wright in 1795, and they stayed on in Stillington for a long time.Does anybody have my info on these families, I do see the Woods were still around until very recently. I also wondered why Thomas Greenwood wasn't listed in the Farming part of this site, must be different records.It would be great to swop family stores with a knowledgeable person of the history of Stillington.
