I wonder if you are thinking of the Overall Cemetery that was in Rutherford County. I believe it originally was two and one-half miles from Murfreesboro, on Franklin Road at the old Overall homestead in Rutherford County. I also believe it no longer exist and a shopping mall now stands where the cemetery was. I don't have a list of those burried in that Cemetery or where the graves were moved.

The best I remember it is not too far south of Liberty but in Cannon County and right on the road, except is up a little hill and lots of trees, not visible from the road. (better give more info in case anyone is also looking for Briant/Bryans/Bryant: Wm. Gleason BRYANT's parents were James T. BRIANT and Rachel A. ALDERSON, m. 1815 in Botetourt Co, VA.

The Rutherford Co. Overall Cemetery, mentioned earlier today, and the Cannon / Dekalb Overall Cemetery are not the same. There is a 3rd "Overall" cemetery, back in a field, between Lascassas and Milton, in Rutherford Co. It is commonly called the "Patterson" Cemetery, but originally it was started as a family cemetery for the Robert Overall Family, who owned the plantation surrounding it. Robert's wife Mary, died in 1838 and has the oldest T'Stone in the cemetery. After Robert died in the 1860s, the plantation was divided up. The Patterson family eventually ended up with parts of the original estate and their family is buried there, also. The old log plantation house, built by Robert around 1815, finally collapsed a few years ago, either burned or the remains burned. I have a jpg of the house, if anyone is interested. An interesting family and my ancestors. Robert was a friend of Andrew Jackson and fought with him in various Indian Wars and I think he was with Jackson at the Battle of New Orleans. His parents were at Ft. Nashboro (later Nashville). They trace their ancestry back to England, where one of the family members helped translate the King James Version of the Bible. Jess Lewis
