Friends of Historic Woolsey

Grave cleaning is a meaningful way to preserve history and honor those who came before us.

As the holiday season approaches, we often find ourselves reflecting on past Christmases, drawing warmth and nostalgia from cherished memories.

In the quiet hum of small-town life, where every street corner whispers stories of days gone by, photographs serve as vibrant windows into the past.

Friends of Historic Woolsey, Historic Woolsey Cemetery’s youngest volunteer – It’s never too early to teach community service.

Are you passionate about preserving history and contributing to your community? The Historic Woolsey Church and Cemetery need your help! There are numerous ways to get involved and make a meaningful impact.

Woolsey is a small town with a rich history, located in the state of Georgia. Friends of Historic Woolsey has been on the lookout for old photos of the historic church, particularly ones that featured its steeple. We knew based on personal accounts that the church had a steeple, but we couldn’t find a photo of it. It was almost like the steeple was hiding from us!

In December 1906, Juan Fernandez McLean, a prominent figure in the Woolsey community, purchased and placed the original fence around the cemetery.

Archibald G. Preston, Woolsey citizen, was a family man and loyal citizen.
