  2. Sally's oldest daughter Sally is listed in Henry Smith's book as being born in November of 1830, but this can't really be possible because Nehemiah married Olive early in 1830 and Olive's first child is born in late November 1830. Sally (the child) lived until 1901 and in the 1900 census she provides her birth month as Nov 1829, which makes more sense. That would mean Sally Wood died at some point between the birth of Sally and when Nehemiah married Olive, which couldn't be much later than February.
