MT CARMEL CEMETERY, TACKETT BRANCH ROAD, GILES COUNTY TENNESSEE
<--> |
This window view captures the cemetery looking
south or toward Tackett Branch Road.
This window view looks north out over the lower part of the cemetery. While the
stones are not so impressive they are
quite historic dating back to pioneer days in America and to me that is more
fascinating than grandiose city cemetery memorials.
We are looking at some of the Jones & Booth memorials, northwest from
the the upper mid area next to the road
behind the photographer. The batman style memorial was stylish in the 1850s.
Many of them proved to be of bad stone
with a tendency to crumble.
