The obituary in the Manitowoc Herald-Times of 11 Sep 1950 fits a death on 10 September 1950 for a man born in 1889, and the Manitowoc paper is plausible for a Two Rivers death. The quoted excerpt does not state the death date or place, so the claim is only partly confirmed. The Richfield/Ridgefield discrepancy concerns birthplace and does not affect this claim.
Matches: Obituary is for Norman B. Wood, matching the claimed name; Birth year 1889 matches the claimed 1889 birth; Obituary dated 11 Sep 1950, the day after the claimed death on 10 September 1950, which fits
Limits: Only a text transcription is given, with no image; the quoted excerpt does not include the death date or place; The excerpt does not state the death date of 10 September 1950 or the place Two Rivers; these are inferred from the newspaper date and the Manitowoc paper; Birthplace is given inconsistently in the excerpt (Richfield vs Ridgefield, N.J.), which is probably a transcription or newspaper error, but it is not relevant to the death claim; Wife and marriage details cannot be checked against the claim as no spouse is listed in it
