1948 · The Beginning of the Cold War
The Berlin Blockade was the first major crises of the Cold War. The Soviet Union blocked all access to the sectors of Berlin under Western control and offered to drop the blockade if the newly introduced Deutsche Mark was removed from West Berlin. The Berlin Blockade showed the different ideological and economic visions for postwar Europe. Even though there wasn't any fire fight during the cold war, many of these skirmishes arose and almost caused nuclear war on multiple occasions.
Name Meaning
English (Norfolk): from Middle English wode ‘wood’ + reue ‘row, row of houses’ (Old English wudu + rǣw, rāw). The surname may be topographic, for some who lived at or near a row of trees, or a row of houses within a wood, or it may be habitational, from any place so named, such as Wood Row in Hatfield Broad Oak (Essex) or Woodrow in Chaddesley Corbett (Worcestershire). There may have been some confusion with Woodruff .
