ODD FELLOWS CEMETERY, Ardmore Tn, GILES COUNTY TENNESSEE

Mapping the Location

 Many burials here without marker information.

This is the Ardmore community cemetery used by Americans of African descendent. Some here we have only names and no dates as they were probably buried with markers in the past. Some information was brought over from the book Giles Co Cemeteries.
