This is a memorial marker. He is actually buried here; David Wood's Actual Grave.∼David Wood was the son of Jonathan Wood (1760–1838) and Rachel White Wood (1764–1825).

In 1816, David Wood moved to Morrow County, Ohio.

In 1819, he married Esther Ward Mosher (1798–1864), and then they lived on a farm. Esther was the daughter of Asa and Bethiah Mosher.

In 1847, David and Esther Wood visited Esther's recently widowed paternal aunt, Esther Mosher Newitt, who lived on a farm near Tiverton, Newport County, Rhode Island. While the Woods were there, they both contracted typhus. Esther Wood recovered, but David died. He was buried in the Newitt family's burial plot, which was on their farm.

The cemetery's exact location is unknown, but enough information exists about the Newitts' farm to approximate it.. Samuel Newitt, Jr., raised sheep, and kept them in a hillside meadow near his house. He was able to see the Sakonnet River from his property.
