Wooldridge Monuments
History
6
Those enshrined here are Keziah Nichols, mother of Colonel Henry Wooldridge; his brothers, W. F., Alfred, Josiah and John; his sisters, Narcissa, Minerva and Susan; and small statues of great nieces, Maud and Minnie. Also included are his favorite hunting dogs, Tow-Head and Bob, a deer and fox, along with Henry himself astride his favorite horse, Fop. This rare statuary, a memorial to loved ones, was conceived by Colonel Henry Wooldridge, whose central marble image was carved in Italy. Devoted to the memory of his family and his life, it reflects an animal lover, famous fox hunter and member of the Masonic order, though only he is entombed here.
