On the outbreak of the Civil War Captain Woodward enlisted in the naval service wtih the rank of volunteer lieutenant. He rose to the rank of commander and during the war he was from time to time commander of the Shawsheen, Miami, Commodore Perry, and the ironclad Atlanta, which later he commanded when he was in command of the Union fleet at the mouth of [the] James river. one of the captains treasured possessions was a personal request from Gen. U. S. Grant to bring the Atlanta to [the] James river. The funeral services and burial were held Saturday at 4 o’clock at the home of his eldest daughter Mrs. W.H. McClelland [sic], 2108 Napoleon avenue. Interment was in Metairie cemetery.
