BIOGRAPHY:   

Henry Woods was from Black Mountain, North Carolina, and is reportedly buried there.  Send any information you have to chess@triad.rr.com.   Anything is helpful, including town of residence, dates, and of course photos.

NOTE:  Since there are many gaps in our records from this period, Woods was probably the NC Champion in other years.

UPDATE:  Henry Woods was a professor, and lived in Moorehead City in December 1938.  See Chess Review below:
