d.1845
Spouse: Mary Norton | Father: William Tilden Wood
Mother: | William Obediah Wood was born in 1759, in Wake, North Carolina, British Colonial America as the son of William Tilden Wood. He married Mary Norton in 1785, in North Carolina, United States. They were the parents of at least 7 sons. He lived in Marion, Arkansas, United States in 1840. He registered for military service in 1781. He died on 10 August 1845, in Yellville, Marion, Arkansas, United States, at the age of 86, and was buried in Layton Cemetery, Yellville, Marion, Arkansas, United States. Obediah Wood drew a pension for his services as a Private in North Carolina, beginning February 15, 1833 at the age of 73; Revolutionary War Pension Application Number S32613, dated 29 August 1832, Anderson County, Tennessee . Amounted to $5 every three months. (DAR/SAR records) From "Arkansas Pensions 1818-1900 ", compiled by Dorothy E Payne: On 27 September 1837, Obediah Woods applied to have his pension transferred to Marion County, Arkansas where he had moved to be near three of his sons, who lived in Arkansas and another who resided in a neighboring county in Missouri. This was shortly after his wife Polly was killed and he still had three daughters living with him. Among the many characters to be found in the valley of White River (Arkansas) who had come into notice east of the Mississippi was the Wood family - old man Wood and son Big Bill Wood - - they were worthy of note from being the father and brother of John Woods who was court-martialed and shot in Jacksons army in the War of 1812. It seems that General Jackson had some trouble to enforce subordination, his army being composed of raw troops fresh from the country. Old Man Woods and his two sons, John and Big Bill, enlisted in Tennessee for the campaign south against the Indians. The young men were good soldiers, but somewhat reckless. John Wood was on picket duty and left his post: he was court-martialed and condemned to be shot, with a recommendation for mercy. Jackson had reprieved others, but notified the court he would not reprieve any more. John Woods was the next, and his life was in one end of the balance, and General Jacksons word in the other. The Generals word was the heaviest and John Woods fell. His father and brother stayed with him and cared for him - dressed him for death - and when the file of soldiers marched him off, they went in another direction in great agony, refusing to see him shot. They soon after deserted the army and came to White River and settled at the ford of the river, three miles above Mt. Olive. It was believed that Jackson was glad they had deserted as there was no effort made to bring them back to the army. Through life the old man and Big Bill took this matter greatly to heart; at the mention of Jacksons name, Big Bill would grow frantic with oaths, and the old man would melt into tears.
