ESTES CEMETERY, Sumac Road,
GILES COUNTY TENNESSEE
This map shows the GPS coordinates of the Estes Cemetery as GPS N 35.24276, W -86.96546.
Location: Go
northeast on Hwy 31 Alt to the New providence Community on the left to Sumac
Road on the right and turn right. Go to the 2nd house on the left (old house).
The cemetery is past but behind the house about 200 yards NE out in the pasture.
Alternate instructions: Go 31A, turn right on Sumac Road just after going down a hill and across the
bridge there is a house on the left where you turn into the driveway (with
permission). The farmer here is making a mistake. He is turning the cemetery
into a cattle service station. This will destroy what is left of this cemetery
over time.
This view from Google shows the tree towering above the cemetery which cannot be
seen for the other trees in our view. The cemetery is not at the fence line seen
near that old vehicle but, that point is about 1/2 way to the cemetery across a
fence line.
