I've come to a complete stop in trying to find any living relatives from my Grandmother's family. She was born Ada Wood in Greetland, Yorkshire in 1890, daughter of John Edward Wood and Grace Wood ( ne Naylor). She had 12 siblings, five were still alive in 1920. They were Sam ( b.1873), Arthur (b.1876), Willie (b.1879), Harvey (b.1883) and Arnold (b.1885). The address for the family in the 1901 census was Cross Hill, Greetland. Ada emigrated to Australia in 1929 with her husband Percy Sykes and daughters Dora, Edna and Mary and died in Geelong , Vic. in 1979. Sandra
