Wood Family
Pictured above are Mary Isabel Hollingshead and her husband, James Alvin Wood, ca. 1940s. The Woods established a family dairy farm in 1931 on Lot 2, Concession 8 (near present day Kipling Avenue and Steeles Avenue West) In 1944, the Woods sold the farm and moved to the Village of Woodbridge. Mary Wood became known as “Woodbridge’s Unofficial Historian,” an appellation she well deserved for her attempts to document the history of the area.
