Jeremiah Wood (September 27, 1876 – January 16, 1962) was an American lawyer and politician.
He was a member of the New York State Assembly (Nassau Co.) in 1912; and an alternate delegate to the 1916 Republican National Convention.
On September 26, 1922, Wood resigned and was appointed a judge of the New York Court of Claims to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of William D. Cunningham.
Wood did not want to live in a village for fear of higher taxes.
To avoid this, he changed the borders of the new village so that his home would not be included.
