Image ID: n/a (web biography). Birth day 26 Jan differs from tree 27 Jan; not linked to Birth.

The Assemblée nationale biographical notice explicitly gives the marriage of Samuel Wood to Abigail Church on 3 Dec 1809 at Brattleboro, matching the claimed year 1809. It is a compiled biography rather than an original record, so confidence is capped. The birth-day difference noted concerns a different claim and does not affect this one.
Matches: Notice states Samuel Wood (1787-1848) married Abigail Church; Marriage date 3 Dec 1809 falls in the claimed year 1809; Place given as Brattleboro; Life dates 1787-1848 match the claimed person
Limits: Web biographical notice, no image of the original marriage record; Compiled/secondary source with no stated underlying source for the marriage; Abigail Church's 1788-1837 dates are not confirmed by the citation; Birth day discrepancy (26 vs 27 Jan) is not relevant to the marriage claim
