WOODS FAMILY CEMETERY

            Woods Family Cemetery is located about 3 miles from Pinson, Tennessee on the south side of Stone Road, directly across from the Mt. Pleasant Cemeteries. There are four graves, only one with a permanent marker.

            David Donahue recorded this cemetery January 18, 2004, based on earlier work by Jonathan K. T. Smith. Mr. Smith's 1995 record for this cemetery appears in his Tombstone Inscriptions from Black Cemeteries in Madison County, Tennessee and a 2000 update appears in his Tombstone Inscriptions from Black Cemeteries in Madison County, Tennessee, Volume 2. These works are referred to collectively as Smith in the notes below.
