The Woodward Cemetery. Photographs by John P. Rankin, April 28, 2003. inscriptions indicate the earliest burials were susan and Eugene c. woodward in 1885. The dates in the inscriptions on the monuments of Susan and Eugene C. Woodward show that both of them died in October of 1885. Eugene was an infant, only 7 months old. He was, however, not a son of Susan, who was too old to have been his mother. Susan was probably the grandmother or great grandmother of Eugene. It is possible that they had a common contagious illness of the time that caused the deaths to be in close time order. 318 - (4351)
