Luke acquired 100 acres of land at Ives Point, Miscouche , on 16 March 1863. Nineteen years later he sold the land and acquired a 100 acre parcel at North Tryon . The transactions were a trade, all made in the one day. The former owner of the Luke Wood property in North Tryon was William MacWilliams . William wanted to fish rather than farm. Luke wanted to farm instead of fish, so they made a square trade and Luke and his family moved their possessions on Apr 19,1882. Luke had cattle to be herded so it was a slow trip. When they arrived in North Tryon there was an old house and a small barn on the farm. They built a blacksmith shop to enable them to make tools, repair machinery, and shoe horses. Luke's son, George, assumed the responsibil¬ ity of the farming opera¬ tion as time went on. George had made his way to in 1891, possibly in search of a Mount Tryon girl, Martha Hatley . Martha had grown up not far from the Wood farm and had gone to the USA to find work. George and Martha were married and re¬ turned to North Tryon . They moved into a new ell-shaped house built in 1893 by Alexander Large from timber on the farm. The old house was used for a wagon shed. Later George added a 30' x 12' exten¬ sion to the house.
