Greetings Pat, Oakwood Cemetery in Bedford, Virginia does exist. But I believe it may be listed under a different name now. if memory serves, possibly something to do with the Elks Home, which is nearby, both off Rt.221, which is the road to Lynchburg. Also located very close to the Hospital, which is actually on Oakwood Street, they are near or on Longwood Ave. If You have access to an old map it might show it. Below is a listing in the Lynchburg phone book, although being a couple hours away. I'm sure it's not what You are looking for, but... The address is: Oakwood Cemetery 3101 Nine Mile Road Richmond, VA 23223 phone: 804-646-4473 I've lived away from the area for quite a while, picturing it in my mind still is easy...just with the particulars it gets a little fuzzier. <grin> Hope this at least helps at least a little. Debbie

I am looking at a current Lynchburg city map. Virginia Baptist Hospital is next door to Oakwood Country Club. There is no Longwood Ave - but is a Longwood Drive whic is about 2 blocks long and goes into nothing - is that possibly where cemetery is? Map does not mark cemeteries. I did a search of Campbell County cemeteries and there is no Oakwood listed. I live half an hour from Lynchburg on 460. If I knew where to look would be happy to do a lookup. --- TotFrocks@aol.com wrote: > Greetings Pat, > Oakwood Cemetery in Bedford, Virginia does > exist.
