Find a grave has 2 McGee Cemeteries and a McGee Family Cemetery. I (Gerald Burrow) think all 3 are in close proximity to each other. The John Bell McGee in the McGee Family Cemetery is the J B McGee in the 2nd McGee Cemetery---someone just added another Cemetery where maybe they should have just corrected the name in the 2nd one. But there does seem to be 2 different cemeteries according to the note on the 1st one with 3 interments listed. - by Gerald Burrow, 3 Nov 2015.
Commentary by CWA: There are about 4 cemeteries in the historical records of Lincoln County that have in the past or does now carry the McGee surname either as the first name or in the body of the cemetery. This is the documentation:
1. McGee Cemetery (the above listing) McGee Hollow near Mulberry, Page 368-369 of the Tim & Helen Marsh cemetery book. N 35.24174 W -86.46864
2. McGee-Waggoner Cemetery aka Waggoner Cemetery, Gimlet Road, east side near Stony Point Church 35.26601 -86.50120, P31 of the book
3. McGee (John) Cemetery Gimlet Road, west side in hedgerow. His is the only marked stone. About 5 other stones reside there. N 35.25888 N -86.50290, P31 of the book
4. McGee-McCartney SE of Fayetteville Tn. 250 Old Lincoln Road, P312 of book in the Lincoln Quad This cemetery has been renamed as the Koonce-Kelso-McCarney-McGee Cemetery, but does not carry that name officially
Any other listing on Findagrave.com are likely spurious data that belongs in the above 4 cemetery listings. C. Wayne Austin 4 Nov 2015.
 

Visited & photographed 10 Jun 2010 by Wayne Austin. Initial typing by Faye Bradford. Added to this site 29 Jul 2012 by C. Wayne Austin. Also published in the book Lincoln County Cemeteries, Page 368-369 by Tim & Helen Marsh & Ralph Whitesell, 1976. Presented on Findagrave.com with some listings missing and other listings belonging to other cemeteries, instead of this one. This is the usual errors in location there. I think it is the way people are thrust into selecting the cemetery, which is fast and furious, without a way to put the proper thought into that phase of their listing graves out there.
