    1. Re: [TNDAVIDS] family cemetery in Hermitage

    3. Hi Lori I spoke with a neighbor of mine yesterday. She remembers the cemetery that was near the railroad tracks where Lowe's is now located. She remembers finding it along with a another girl when they were kids but she does not remember the names on the tombstones. She said they were very old. It is not the Creel cemetery that has been talked about on this list. I know where it is. It is located in a triangle between Andrew Jackson Parkway and Dodson Chapel Rd or Chandler Rd. The Dodson family could have own the land where Lowe's is located. Who are you looking for?

I am looking for information on a cemetery in Hermitage that is no longer in existence. It was a small family cemetery that was located in the where the Lowes is now on Old Hickory Blvd. There were at least 2 stones still standing in 1979. Some of the family names in this area were Gleaves, Creel, and Peek. The cemetery was visible from the intersection of Cortez Ct and Juarez Dr. It was in the middle of a field and most easily accessed from the railroad tracks. Evidently, vandalism and/or time eroded the stones. When construction began on the Lowes store, there was no visible evidence of a cemetery. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Any ideas would be appreciated!!
