Catherine Gamel was born September 15, 1820. The exact location of her birth has not been discovered, but according to a later Federal Census, she was born in New York, most likely in Argyle, Washington County. She was the fourth of five children born to Joseph W. Gamel and Isabel Gillis. She married Ezra Holden Wood at Argyle, New York, on April 22, 1841. After the marriage, they lived for a time in Memor, New York, where their first child, Theodore Gamil, was born. They then moved to New York City, where two more children, Charles Holden & Emma Jane, were born.

Before 1849, they moved to Fountain Prairie, Columbia County, Wisconsin. Five more children were born to the couple while they lived there. Those children were George Henry, Orry Elizabeth, Ellen Ann, Mary Angeline & Alfred Amminus. Finally, in 1867, the family moved to a farm in Woodville Township, Waseca County, Minnesota. Ezra died in Woodville at 71. Catherine died in the city of Waseca, on September 29, 1886, just one year after Ezra. Both are buried in the Woodville Cemetery in Waseca.
