Descendants of William D.
Wood
Generation One
1. William
D.1 WOOD was born circa 1794 in Cornwallis, Kings Co, Nova
Scotia.1 He married Olivia
Hovey Williams on 23 Oct 1817 in Rawdon, Hants Co, Nova Scotia (St Paul's
Anglican Church). He died on 29 May 1866 in Gardner's Creek, Saint John Co, New
Brunswick ("On the 29th instant at his residence, Gardner's Creek, after a short
but severe illness, Mr. William H. Wood, in the 72nd year of his age, a native
of Cornwallis, N.S., and for the last 38 years a resident of this Province. He
leaves a large circle of relatives and friends."
His obituary listed him as William H. Wood, rather than William D. Wood. This
writer has no idea if this was a mistake at the newspaper).2 He was buried in
Brown's Cemetery, Fairfield, Saint John Co, New Brunswick.
William Wood's early life remains a mystery at this point. No information has
been located to prove his parentage, and nothing is known before his marriage in
1817, or, for that matter, until the family moved to New Brunswick ca 1825. One
descendant, Allene P. Steves of Hillsborough, N.B., mentioned in a letter dated
6 September 1982 to this writer that she was told William Wood had been
appointed to guide a band of settlers from Nova Scotia to New Brunswick and that
he liked the country so well he decided to move there as well. Although the
marriage of William and Olivia took place in Rawdon, Hants County, Nova Scotia,
there is little substantiating evidence that either of their families were of
that area. It is possible though that William was the son of Marbel Wood and his
wife Rebecca Rawlins who died at Rawdon in 1813. Much more research is needed in
this area!
The marriage record itself mentions that they were married with consent of
guardians, rather than parents, leading one to think that possibly both had lost
their parents by that time, or at least one of them. Birth records for their
first three children have yet to be located in any towns in Nova Scotia.
On 21 October 1850, William and Olivia sold 105 3/4 acres land in the parish of
Simonds to their son, Joseph Williams Wood, for the sum of five shillings "as
well as other considerations of love and affection". This land was sold by the
heirs of John Dewar to William Wood and William Benjamin " and by them divided
on the thirteenth day September instant". On 17 September 1861, William and
Olivia sold 40 acres to Joseph Williams Wood for forty pounds. It is probable
that they turned their farm over to Joseph because they were to remain with him
for their final years. Both William Wood and son Joseph Wood are listed in the
1865-1866 directory as of Gardner's Creek. Sometime in the late 1870's, Joseph
probably sold the properties in Gardner's Creek and moved to Saint John. Further
research of land records is needed in this area to verify the date.
The 1851 census of Simonds Parish states that he entered the province in 1826,
so that year is confirmed both in the census as well as his obituary.
If William Wood was born in Cornwallis, the Loyalist settlement of Cornwallis
was situated in the Northeast corner of what is now Kings County, including Cape
Blomidon. Present villages include Glenmont and Canning. Horton was south of
Cornwallis to the Hants County, Falmouth Township line.
Olivia Hovey WILLIAMS was born circa 1791 in Nova
Scotia.3 She died circa 1872 in Saint John
Co, New Brunswick. She was buried in 1872 in Brown's Cemetery, Fairfield, Saint
John Co., New Brunswick. Family tales have always stipulated with great emphasis
that Olivia was descended from Roger Williams of Providence, Rhode Island. Much
research has taken place and this cannot yet be confirmed. Yest, every known
branch that could be found - no matter what end of the continent, had all heard
the story back from the 1880's and 1900, perhaps earlier. My own grandmother,
back in the 1930's had a huge framed print depicting Roger Williams over the
sofa.
This family has been well documented for many years, and yet, nothing has
surfaced to substantiate the claim. So at this point, you will find neither an
acceptance of the claim nor a denial. Time will tell.
This writer believes that Olivia Hovey Williams was a daughter of the Rev.
Joseph Williams and Hannah Hovey who married 2 Jan 1770 at Horton, NS, or
perhaps even the daughter of their eldest son Charles who was born 13 May 1771.
I will connect this family to them, but I have NO evidence other than what can
be drawn from names and places to establish this as fact.
Children of William D.1 Wood and Olivia Hovey Williams were
as follows:

Catherine E. JACKSON
was
born circa 1871 in Saint John, Saint John Co, New Brunswick. She died on 21 Mar
1925 (Newspaper: Mrs. N. Benjamin, 50, Trapped Bones Found Amid Ruins.
"Mrs. Nathan Benjamin, a widow, about 50 years of age was burned to death
Saturday night when her home at Gradners Creek, near St Martins, about 25 miles
outside Saint John was destroyed by fire. She had been left alone in the house
and her death was not discovered until the fire burned itself out. A search of
the ruins disclosed charred bones lying near what had the bottom of the
stairway.
Mrs. Benjamin's two sons and daughter, who were living at the house were away
from home for the evening. On their return about 10:30 PM they saw the fire and
rushed to their home. By then the house was a little more than a burning heap of
wood. The roof and walls having given away. When they could not find her they
figured she may have wondered off into the woods, then the charred bones were
discovered. It is believed she was on her way up the stairs to extinguish the
fire but fell and had been overcome by smoke just a few feet from the front
door.
Mrs. Benjamin had two daughters living in Saint John, Mrs. Ralph Hatfield (Mary
Elizabeth), and Miss Estelle Benjamin, with J. Willard Smith's family; and one
brother Daniel Jackson, 9 Hospital Street. They were all called yesterday to
Gardner's Creek after word of the tragedy was received. Sargeant-Detective John
T. Power drove to Gardner's Creek to view the scene of death and will return
there this morning with coronor H.A. Porter, for an investigation.
The house was situated on Fairfield Road in an isolated postion. A factor that
was probably responsible for the fire getting a big headway was the lateness of
the hour, most of the neighbors being asleep. The origin of the blaze is
unknown. Mrs. Benjamin has been a subject to fainting spells and it is believed
that she may have taken one of these at the time of the fire and had been
overcome by the smoke before recovering").
