Note: The death date of 25 July 1858 comes from a family record in the possession of Stanley W. Arnold Jr., the compiler of this data. The record of pension payments to Olive Wood states that she died on 21 July 1858.

Olive was the daughter of Nathaniel and Mehitable (Perley) Perley of Boxford, Mass. She was married in Boxford on 16 April 1794 to Enoch Wood, the son of Jonathan Wood and Sarah Redington, also of Boxford. Olive and Enoch had three known children: Maria, Sophronia, and Enoch Perley, all born in Loudon, NH.

Sometime after 1810, Olive moved with her husband and family to Hallowell, Maine, and lived there for about two decades. Sometime in the 1830s, as an elder couple, Olive and Enoch moved to Bangor, Maine to live with their daughter, Sophronia Drew. Following Enoch's death, Olive appeared on the 1850 census in Bangor with Sophronia and Thomas Drew and family. Even though Enoch died while on a visit back to Hallowell, the couple is buried in the family plot in Bangor.
