  Notes	Goodspeed's History of Obion County, TN: Alfred Naylor may be mentioned as one of the prominent farmers of Obion County, Tenn. His birth occurred in Pulaski County, Ky., December 8, 1807, the eldest of a family of ten children — seven sons and three daughters — all of whom are living. His parents, John and Sarah (Woodfin) Naylor, were born in Maryland, and North Carolina, respectively, and after their marriage in the latter State, moved to Kentucky. After residing in Pulaski County a few years, they came to Bedford Co., Tenn., and followed farming until the father’s death in 1854. From that time until her death, in 1856, the mother was a resident of Obion County. At the early age of twenty-one, Alfred Naylor began merchandising in Rutherford county, continuing about two years. He then moved to Fulton County, Ky., where he was engaged in wool carding and farming, about eighteen years, and in 1850 came to Obion County, Tenn., and located on his present farm of 200 acres of fine land, near Union City, along the line of the Mobile & Ohio R. R. In 1842 he married Sarah Day, and by her became the father of twelve children, six of whom are still living. Mr. Naylor was an old line Whig, but of late years has been identified with the National Greenback party. Information from Al Cuite: According to Eric Woodfin Naylor, who was raised in Obion County, and still owns some of the family farms there, Sarah Woodfin Naylor was buried in the Thompson-Naylor Cemetery. There are only four graves that are marked including Sarah’s son Woodfin Naylor and his wife Ellenor, great-grandparents of Eric Woodfin Naylor, He has always been told that Sarah Woodfin Naylor was buried there although there is no marker.
