Cemetery History

 The Woodhill Cemetery was established about 1856 as a private corporation and is now owned and operated by the Franklin Township Trustees as a park like cemetery of over 100 acres. It is the final resting place of many of those who were originally buried in the old "4th Street Cemetery" and the adjacent "Hillside Cemetery", both of which are now extinct. Saint Mary’s Catholic section of Woodhill cemetery is at the south end of Franklin at SW corner of SR 73 and Dixie Hwy (OGS #14812). The first known burial is Alice VanClicve who died in 1805.  Revolutionary War veterans include: Garrett G. Schenck and William Schenck.  War of 1812 veterans include: Samuel Campbell & George McAroy.
