Charles Seely Wood (1845-1912) was born in Cincinnati and earned degrees from Miami University of Ohio and the Princeton Theological Seminary. He was a pastor in Wisconsin and New York in the 1870s before retiring from the ministry for health reasons. He then wrote books and articles on Ohio history.
