Boyd-Woods Family Cemetery is located on CR-565 two miles north of US-50 in Mascotte or 5.5 miles south of US-19 and on the east side of the road. The GPS lists this cemetery at 16753 Villa City Rd., Groveland, FL, and coordinates N28.35.26 and W-81.52.19. This is a very old, well-kept family cemetery with only 14 headstones. I have listed them beginning at the east side and counting from the east end of each row.

Woods Family Cemetary

This Woods family is descended from Thomas Woods, outside of Savannah, GA.

Francis Marion was injured at Gettysburg while fighting as a confederate soilder, he later died from the injuies, he owned a large orange grove in Mascot Florida. He died in 1881 and his son, George Walter Woods and his wife, Louanza (Smart) Woods buried him in the orange grove. In 1895 Susanna Woods, F.M.'s mother passed away, and she was buried to the West of him in what has now become the G.W. Woods Family Cemetary. Lousana passed in 1927 and rests beside F.M. G.W.'s sister Nancy Woods Boyd passed in 1932 and her husband William Hardy Boyd in 1933 and laid to rests next to each other. G.W. passed in 1955 and rests next to his mother. In 1970 Lillian Woods, the wife of Frances U. Woods (son of G.W.) passed and was laid to rests. In 1974 the son of Nancy Boyd, Cyril Boyd passed and rests near his father. In 1979 F.U. Woods passed and rests next to his wife Lillian. Another son of G.W., Dennis (Shorty) Woods passed in 1983 and rests West of F.M. The son Cyril Boyd, William Hardy Boyd passed in 1993, and awaits his wife, Elizabeth "Betty" Fryer Boyd. In 2002 Betty's father, Monroe Fryer passed and rests near Betty's marker. In 2005 the first of three children of Francis U. and Lillian, Russell Woods passed and rests next to his mother, George passed in 2008 and rests near his name sake, G.W. In 2011 Theresa Woods Scott passed and she rests next to her father, Francis U.

There are four markers missing from the North/East of the cemetary. Frank Leon Woods 1896-1953, I belive his father Uncle Bill, William M. Woods 1861- his first wife Rebbeca Robbins Woods1872-1895 and his second wife Calista Harrell Woods 1878-1908, mother of Frank Leon.
