    • from newspaper obituary (posted by Nancy Woods on findagrave.com)
      George Woods, son of Robert and Delhia Woods, was born on a farm near Glenwood, Mills Co., Iowa March 17, 1868, and died Jan. 3, 1944, at Genoa, Nebr., aged 75 years, 9 months, 17 days. In the fall of 1878 he moved with his parents to Dayton, coming in a prairie schooner from Muscatine county and settled on a farm two miles north of Dayton. This where he spent his early days both in school and church. Attending the country school and McGuire Bend U.B. church. It was at that church he decided to live a christian life. On March 16, 1892, he was united in marriage to Miss Hila Payne of near Stratford and to that union was born one son, Roy, who with his mother is left to mourn his passing away from this life. George Woods had no lingering illness. He simply fell asleep during the night. A very nice way to go home. Simply laying your labors down and going to that perfect rest. He also leaves to mourn his loss four brothers and four sisters. He was preceded in death by four sisters and tow brothers. The four sisters are Mrs. Lydia Snyder of Dayten, Mrs. Ollie Woods, Magnolia, Ill., Mrs. Eva Speer, Comstock, Nebr., and Mrs. Bessie Fussel of Arkansas City, Kan. The four brothers: Henry Woods, Dayton, Robert Woods, Estherville, H.E. Woods, Ponco City, Okla;, and William Woods, Uncas, Okla.- Dayton Review.
