⚠ The wife is written JaneThe 1861 and 1881 censuses call her Susanah. Here she is Jane, aged 43. Either the enumerator slipped or it is a second name.
⚠ Duncan is not in the treeDuncan Wood, aged 2, is listed as a son. He is not in the tree and does not appear in the 1881 household, so he may have died young.
ℹ Mary fits the treeMary, aged 4, matches Mary Wood born 30 June 1866 at Calton. Thomas is written as 20; his birth date of November 1849 would make him 21.
ℹ BoardersPatrick Gorman, Harry Boyd and Andrew Boyd are boarders and not relatives.

⚠ Agnes and Susannah are a medium-confidence matchThe two grandchildren are Susannah (7) and Agnes. They fit Susannah Wood (born 1874) and Agnes Wood (born 24 April 1876), daughters of Thomas Wood, and Thomas is in the house. The tree has Agnes as the daughter of Thomas and Mary Macmillan, but Mary is not in this household. The ages of both children are hard to read.
⚠ Two babies listed as William's childrenIsabella (7 months) and William (9 months) cannot both be the baby of William and Isabella Wood, who also have John (2). The tree has John (1879) and Isabella (about 1881) only. One of the infants may belong to Thomas, or an age is misread.
⚠ Birthplace of JohnJohn Wood is born at Springburn, Lanarkshire. The tree has him born in Dundee in 1821. The 1861 and 1871 censuses also say Glasgow.
ℹ Hard handwritingSeveral ages in the first rows are struck through or overwritten. Thomas is read as 32 and the other adult ages as given. The household above (schedule 44, John Devit) and the one below (schedule 46, William Preston) are unrelated.
