Shaver, F. A., Arthur P. Rose, R. F. Steele, and A. E. Adams, compilers. "An Illustrated History of Central Oregon." ("Embracing Wasco, Sherman, Gilliam, Wheeler, Crook, Lake, & Klamath Counties") Spokane, WA: Western Historical Publishing Co., 1905. p. 796. LEE WOOD who resides at Ashwood, Oregon, was born in Lake county, California, on April 15, 1869. His father, W. T. Wood, is mentioned in another portion of this work. Mr. Wood is one of the stirring young business men of, the county, possessing marked industry and integrity. He came from California to Lane county, Oregon, with his parents when but two years of age. The beginning of his education was gained in the Lane county home and in 1879, the family came thence to what is now Crook county. Here our subject was reared and completed his education and has been more or less connected with stock raising ever since the father settled here. It is interesting to note that where the shaft of the Oregon King is now located, Mr. Wood herded sheep for years, not knowing there were such valuable bodies of ore underneath. He is now largely interested in mining as well as stock raising and bids fair to become one of the wealthy men of this part of the country. In the fall of 1901, Mr. Wood married Lena B. Robinson, the daughter of J. W. Robinson, an account of whose life is found elsewhere in this volume. Mr. and Mrs. Wood are young people of excellent standing, are favorites in society and are to be commended for their energy displayed in the good work of developing this country. ******************* Submitted to the Oregon Bios.
