Elmwood Cemetery was started in 1883 with the purchase of about ten acres of land from John Johnson for $750. Additional land was acquired in 1923 and 1935 to make the current cemetery about 17 acres in size.

Many heartfelt thanks go to the following people who helped in the survey: Mildred Goss, Bonnie Breedlove, Dr. Richard Taylor, Julia Ann Taylor, Jessie McLam, Kathryn "Kittie" Humphries, Roy Laney, Barbara Dillard, Velvet Satterwhite, Dorothy Wilkinson, Mary McGhee, Emma Lou Day, Leonard Dean, Carrie Frances Averett. Thanks also to Melba Knott, with the city of Oxford, for providing a printout of the burial names and dates.
