History

The area of present-day Woodlawn, located in Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains, began as a land grant to James Wood of Frederick County, Virginia in 1756. His son, James Wood, served as governor of Virginia from 1796 to 1799. The Treaty of Lochaber, between British representative John Stuart and the Cherokee, made the land available for settlement about 1770. The original James Wood bequeathed the land to his wife Mary who bequeathed it to her grandsons. It is thought that none of the Wood family ever lived in Woodlawn.
