LORENZO DOW WOOD, Caledonia, Pulaski County, born in Pulaski County, Illinois, March 11, 1849. He is the son of Robert F. Wood, now residing in Pulaski, Kentucky. By diligent self-exertion he acquired a fair education in boyhood. Prior to 1872, he learned the business of engineer, in the machine shops at Vicksburg, Mississippi, and worked about two years at the carpenter's trade. He has since turned his attention to farming, which he intends to make his life-business. He owns a good farm in McCracken County, Kentucky, and is a man of enterprise and good business qualification, and a member of the United Brethren Church in good standing.
