Wood, Frederick A.

The collection contains the business papers of Frederick A. Wood of the village of East Lebanon, Maine. Very little information is available about Mr. Wood, but from materials in the collection it appears that he was in the lumber business, dealing in wood, especially cedar, cut near Caribou and New Sweden, Maine. At some point he seems to have been in business with J.A. Hurd. Several of the letters in the collection mention shipping shingles and cedar. He also seems to have been involved in selling and shipping potatoes and apples.
