Trying to find Wood

I am trying to trace any descendants of my Great Grandfather Edward Wood born in Selby around 1846. He married Hannah Holder in Hull and they had 5 children, that I know of, Thomas (1871), Florence (1872), William Henry (1875), Arthur my Grandfather (1877) and Edward (1879). They were all born in Hull and they all worked on the railway (NE later LNER) as engine drivers. Work moved my family away from Hull and so I lost touch with them and their families. Amongst the names I have heard are Florence Elizabeth, Percy, Millicent Beatrice, Edith May, Christopher.
