CAMPBELL
(Thomas M.) CEMETERY,
Wales Estate Road, GILES COUNTY TENNESSEE
This map shows the GPS coordinates of the Thomas M. Campbell Cemetery as N 35.28940
X -87.08909.
Location: Go
west on Highway 64 (toward Lawrenceburg) from Pulaski and turn north on
Campbellsville Rd (Hwy 166). Go about 8 miles and up the hill and turn left on
Wales Estate Road. Follow that almost to the end about 2 tenths of a mile
and the cemetery is on the left. This is just to the right of the next to last house
near the
road. Currently it rest among a salvage yard and is hard to identify from the
Salvage items. At one time the main road went closer to this cemetery and stayed
in the valley. Phelps Cemetery was just west of the road. It connected back into
what is now Wales Estate Road then merged with the current Hwy 166 continuing
northward. See 1940s US Geological Topographical survey maps to verify this.
While it is definitely true this land owner/leaser is abusing the quality of
this cemetery beauty. I cannot see that any of the monuments or the fieldstones
have been hit or knocked over when I was there.
