The quoted text from Cabot's Annals states Philip Wood died in Brattleboro, Vt., July 16, 1845, which matches the claimed date and place exactly. The birth year 1756 is consistent with the life span given. As a published compilation without an image or cited primary source, it is secondary evidence.
Matches: Name Philip Wood matches; Death date 16 July 1845 stated explicitly; Death place Brattleboro, Vt. stated explicitly; Birth 1756 (29 Apr 1756) fits the 1756–1845 life span in the claim
Limits: No image attached; judged from the transcribed citation text only; Annals of Brattleboro is a published compiled work, not an original death record; Source of Cabot's death date is not stated (no town or church record cited)
