This cemetery is enclosed by a nice, high rock wall and is on a hillside in the edge of the woods. All of the graves
apparently have inscribed stones.

This Cemetery was presented in the book They Passed This Way abt 1963, Page A-158. Mr. Fred Lee Hawkins visited there again 1 Mar 1988 and presented it on Page 669 of the book Maury County Tennessee Cemeteries. Added here 18 Aug 2010, by Wayne Austin.
This presentation is primarily from that book which can be purchased at this site: http://historicmaury.org/ (under publications)
