All the "No photos" were from listings found in the book Giles County Cemeteries 1989 that we did not find inscribed markers for. Likely the reason for that is these were people laid to rest in unmarked graves. Also it could be that I missed an occasional stone with an inscription. This is confirmed by the many fieldstones marking unknown graves here. [WA 30 Jun 2010].

This cemetery was visited and the memorials photographed by Wayne Austin 8 Mar 2010. The listing was then transcribed & edited by Mary Bob McClain. Preliminary typing by Faye Bradford, 10 Mar 2010. Formatted and added here 30 Jun 2010 by Wayne Austin. This cemetery also listed on page 521, Giles County Cemetery book by the Giles County Historical Society. 1989. This book has been and will continue to be an important source of cemetery and genealogy information for Giles County Tennessee researchers.
