RUSSELL CEMETERY,
junction of Dee Solomon aka Bee Springs Rd & Loyd Rd., LINCOLN COUNTY TENNESSEE
This map shows the GPS coordinates of the Russell Cemetery as N 35.15361 X W
-86.82741.
Location: From
Fayetteville go west on Hwy 64 nearly to Exit 14 of I-65 in Giles County.
Turn south (left) on Bradshaw Creek Road. That road becomes Dee Solomon Rd
after crossing into Lincoln County. When you go a little further it junctions
with Loyd Road aka Stanford
Hollow Road. Turn right (west) and with permission go right into the home & farm lane. This
today is the Story property and you can reach George Story at 615-974-9205 for
permission to get past the gate to the farm. At the barn follow along the ridge
going northeast until you get to a sunken pond and the cemetery is another 75
yards past the pond continuing on an easterly course still in the woodland.
Also the cemetery is 400 yards east, but bearing to the north of the house and
barn along and up the gentle slope. Another way of measuring it is the cemetery
is about 2 tenths of a mile northwest of the junction of Dee Solomon Road and Loyd Road. From that point go due northwest across a field (do not damage the
farmer's fence though) and cross the creek bed. Then continue cross another open field
and after going into the woods go up the slope about 75 yards and you will see
the cemetery under two giant Beech Trees among other trees. There are cattle on
this property and the fences are high so use care here. With permission use can use
two way ladders for the fences if
you want to get there using the shortest walking route. The shortest walking
route is from Dee Solomon Rd. Walk 300 yards along the outside or south side of
the tree line going southwest and turn right and to into the woodland and go up
the slope and the
cemetery is 75 yards into the woodland.
