Camden Point Community Cemetery

One mile N of Camden Point, Missouri on Highway EE. Today the cemetery has 6 acres. When the Masonic Cemetery was established on this land, the pioneer Woodson Cemetery became a part of it. We found that seven pioneers were born during the 18th century, during George Washington's presidency. Benjamin J. Woodson and Margaret, his wife sold 2 1/2 acres of land to the Camden Point Masonic Lodge No. 169 A.F. & A.M. for $250. Nine years later they sold an additional 2 1/2 acres at the same price to the Masonic Lodge. The Masonic Cemetery became the Camden Point Community Cemetery.
