     Her name was also recorded as Pryscilla Wood.7
     Only the head of the household was named in the 1820 census, with the number of household members broken out by age and gender groupings. Priscilla appears to have been included in this statistical breakout of the household of Hezekiah Ripley.8

     The following analysis is from my personal research and reflects my attempts to consolidate information from different sources.
I am not convinced that Ephraim Wood and Sarah Wood are the correct parents for Priscilla Wood. Early records do not include the mother's maiden name for birth records, and there were two potential couples in the are at this time period.9

     Research notes (August 2024):
Her mother may have been Sarah née French rather than Sarah Wood, both of whom married an Ephraim Wood, two separate men.10
