WOOD (GEORGE), printer in London, ? 1613-? 1624; (1) Stepney, 1621; (2) Grub Street, 1622. A stationer of this name took up his freedom in the Company on November 15th, 1613 {- presented by Thomas Dawson SNODHAM, Thomas ( - 1625) ‹ LBT 07409 › }, the successor of Thomas East { EAST, Thomas (1540 - 1608) ‹ LBT 07395 › }, and to have had some dealings with Thomas Harper { HARPER, Thomas ( - 1656) ‹ LBT 06993 › } which became the subject of litigation in the Court of Requests and Star Chamber. [Records of the Stationers' Company; Arber, iii. 701-4.]
MLT Note: It would appear that McKenzie, D.F. (1961) #175 is wrong when it states that the George Woode listed as freed by Thomas Dawson (LBT/07918) was 'apparently never formally bound'. There is a record for the binding of a George Wood to Thomas Dawson on 4 Feb 1594 (LBT/07304). ---
