The U.S. Grant Association confirmed the link between Russell Grant and U.S. Grant with the following message:

"Tracing the descent of Ulysses S. Grant, Matthew Grant (1601-1681) and his wife Priscilla (ca. 1601-1644) had 6 children.

One of their children was Samuel Grant (1631-1718). He and his wife Mary Porter (b. 1638) had 9 children.Ulysses S. Grant is the great, great, great, great grandson of Samuel Grant (1631-1718), through his son—also named Samuel Grant (1659-1710)—and his wife Grace Miner (1670-1735).
Directly pertinent to your question, Samuel Grant (1631-1718) and his wife Mary Porter (b. 1638) also had a son named Josiah (b. 1668).

Josiah Grant (1668-1732) and his wife Rebecca Miner (1672-1746/7) had 5 children, one of whom was Noah Grant (b. 1705/6).

Noah Grant (1705/6-1759) and Hannah Miner (unk.) had 5 children, one of whom was also named Noah Grant (b. 1747).

Noah Grant (1747-1801) and Mary Palmer (d. 1840) had 7 children, one of whom was Noah Grant (b. 1772).

Noah Grant (b. 1772) and Polly Browning (b. 1774) had 13 children, one of whom was Russel Grant (b. 1797/8).

Russel Grant (1797/8-1880) and Betsey Loveless (1804-1886) had 8 children, one of whom was John Grant (b. 1831).

John Grant (b. 1831) and his wife Sarah Ann Warren had 11 children, one of whom was Olive Grant (b. 1869 in Freetown Corners, NY).

This appears to be the Olive Grant from the question, since the information about her given in the question matches what we found about her in the Grant family genealogy (geography and married name). There is additional detail regarding her predecessors in The Grant Family: A Genealogical History of the Descendants of Matthew Grant of Windsor, CT, 1601-1898, by Arthur Hastings Grant.
