ROOK
CEMETERY-MAURY COUNTY TENNESSEE
The
Rook cemetery lies next to the road
and a fence is between it and the Gilliam Cemetery. That is not to separate
the two cemeteries as it is a stock cattle fence. The Rook Cemetery is much
newer than the old Gilliam Cemetery but has only two or three memorials. One or
two of the memorials is also hand made indicating the desire to hand fashion
memorials using inexpensive methods. This is a great idea in theory but does not
work well in practice.
