Death Notes

General Notes
Possibly the daughter of Emma Whitaker and James Wood who married at Dewsbury All Saints 10 Dec 1843. This would explain him being nephew of the two Whitaker sisters:
Living at the Wellington Inn, Chapel Lane, Bingley in 1851
Nephew of Thomas, who brought Thomas Wood up, and gave him a job in 1861 as a butchers assistant in 1861.
In 1871 the couple are at 20 Hollis St Leeds, Thomas is a 'master pork butcher' and they have one son Thomas A Wood.
In 1881 the family have moved to Nunthorpe Road, Icklegate, York, and added two further sons Alfred H and Leonard W. Thomas is now a 'furniture dealer' with a servant. However the really interesting find is that living with them is Rachel Whitaker (72), sister of Thomas's adoptive mother and described as 'aunt'. While not in any way conclusive, this seems to suggest that Thomas was a nephew of Zilpah rather than Thomas Pickles as we had presumed.
