MATTHEWS CEMETERY (Historic) BIGBYVILLE, MAURY COUNTY, TENNESSEE

 

<-->

This Matthews Cemetery photo is looking west from the east or front side. This photo comes very 
close to including all the stones if we were able to make them all out from here. There are three 
enclosed areas separated with iron fences, two with iron rail fencing and one with ornamental iron fencing. 
The further back up the hill toward the tree line one goes the older the cemetery becomes. Generally 
one will find a cluster of Matthews memorials near the front section then Scott, Hanna, Davis, Craig, 
Ralston, and Walker then another cluster of Matthews Stones and of course many other surnames 
intermingled here. Photo by Wayne Austin Dec 13, 2004.

We are looking at row 2 thru 4 here. The many skips or unmarked graves make the task of 
tracking the rows difficult. Photo by Wayne Austin Dec 13, 2004.
