POWELL-KINCAID-GIBBONS CEMETERY
(Powell School Road), GILES COUNTY TENNESSEE
This map shows the GPS coordinates of the Powell-Kincaid-Gibbons Cemetery as GPS N 35.07722, W -87.19578.
Location:
Take Hwy 11 from Pulaski going southwest several miles, at Minor Hill turn right into Puncheon Road.
After 1/3 mile turn back north (right) on Jackson Hollow Road. Follow that
about 1 & 1/2 miles and turn left (west) on Powell School Road. Go another 1
& 1/2 miles and the cemetery is about 300 yards south of the junction on your
left upon a slope above the pond at the junction of Powell School Road and
Shannon creek Road. The caretaker lives nearby and may be able to grant you
permission. Access gates are found in the area of the buildings on the Southside
of Shannon Creek Road seen on the below map. You can see the stones in the
distance from the road in the winter.
This aerial map shows a closer view of the cemetery on the side of a slope under a clump of
trees where the white cross marks the spot. Cows can get to the cemetery but
there are currently Texas Longhorns in the lowland pond area to the north of
here. They would get their long horns tangled in the brush if they try to get
into the cemetery. I am told an out of town Doctor owns the property, so no
longer in Arris Bass's name. Old home has been abolished too which was down on
Shannon Creek Road northwest of the cemetery.
