Jonathan Edwards Woodbridge

Jonathan Edwards Woodbridge (January 16, 1844 – May 21, 1935) was an American shipbuilder and naval architect from Richmond, Virginia. He served in the Confederate Army during the American Civil War and was one of the Virginia Military Institute cadets who fought at the Battle of New Market.

Woodbridge was the great-grandson of the preacher John Edwards and a prominent citizen of Chester, Pennsylvania. He was married to Louise Deshong, the daughter of the wealthy Chester businessman John O. Deshong.

In 1864, Woodbridge had risen to the rank of sergeant major, the highest-ranking noncommissioned officer in the corps.

After the battle of New Market, Woodbridge was promoted to Adjutant of the Corps of cadets. It later became home to the Phi Sigma Sigma sorority. The home is currently used by Widener University as a student dormitory.
