The citation summarises the dictionary entry as giving death at Farnham on 24 Jan 1848, which matches the claim on date and place. It is a published secondary compilation and cannot be checked against the page here, and it appears to repeat the National Assembly notice rather than add independent evidence. It is a reasonable authority for a parliamentarian's death, but not a primary record.
Matches: Citation text states death at Farnham on 24 Jan 1848, matching claimed date and place; Subject is Samuel Wood, matching the person in the claim; Marriage to Abigail Church in 1809 is consistent with a man born 1787
Limits: No image; only the citation's own summary of the published entry, not the page itself; Compiled biographical dictionary, not an original death or burial record; Citation says 'same data as AssNat notice', so it may not be independent of that source; Birth year 1787 is not addressed in the citation text
