TILLERY CEMETERY, Elkwood Section Rd, LIMESTONE COUNTY ALABAMA
In the center of the North East Quarter of Section 12, Township 1 South. Range 3 West on the south side of Davis Branch.

Eppy Tillery's 80 acre land purchase 1 mar 1858. See land document below. I had assumed the below purchase was for a tract whereby the Tillery Cemetery was included, but (opps) maybe the Tillery family plot of 80 acres if that was all there were was due south in the 80 acre area fronting on Pulaski Pike.

Document says this land is in the SE quarter of Section 12, but the cemetery is in the NE quarter. Wonder if that is an error or maybe this cemetery was actually started on another parties land north of Eppy Tillery's or the graveyard land was included in a purchase from an earlier or later time. The earliest recorded stone is for 5 year old Sarak K. Freeman, 1849. or 9 years before the above land purchase, but the unmarked areas of the cemetery leaves us in question.

You begin your off-road journey traveling south west of Elkwood Section Rd while still inside Madison County Section 7 and then cross into Section 12 of Limestone County where you will find the cemetery in the center of the Northeast Quad of section 12. Eppy Tillery purchased above one eighth of the Section 12, but not this one in this particular purchase assuming no errors.
