    1. Re: [TNDAVIDS] family cemetery in Hermitage
    2. LORI i spoke to my brother today and he mentioned that my father use to talk about a cemetery in "the bottoms". That apparently is an area by a railroad track, it is an old field area and actually is the land my grandfather owned and my father was born on. It is apparently just a short distance from the present Creel Cemetery..I'm not very familiar with the area any more so I may be confusing you more, I apologize if I am. He is going to look over the area he is thinking of in a few weeks when he goes to work on the present cemetery. Years ago there were more reported graves there. When the property was sold after my uncle and fathers death there were a couple businesses constructed on the property. Many of the graves were marked with field stones, not true markers and no real register was found to the best of my memory. My aunt fenced in the area that now exists. I will let you know if he finds anything more. Jackie

    3. Thanks Jackie! I look forward to any information you or your brother can provide on the cemetery in "the bottoms". I don't think it is the one I am looking for , but I don't know that the one you are describing has been included in the Davidson County Cemetery Survey. I appreciate all your help!
