Contributed by Lynda Clarke, Jul 05, 2002 [belle55@mindspring.com].  Total records = 100.

Located approximately 1 mile west of Hillville about 100 yards off the road on Hillville Road, Hillville, Tennessee.

The following list is a compilation of funeral home records, those copied by volunteers, recollections of long-time residents of the community and some notes I made from my own family research and visits to the cemetery.  Basically all were the same information. 

This cemetery has a lot of unmarked graves.  Either a tombstone was not put down or has been broken or deteriorated over the years. Some notes state that they discontinued using this cemetery because so many unmarked graves were uncovered when attempting a new burial.
