Andrew T Jackson and Rhoda Jackson buried in Gragson (Gregson) Cemetery on Walker's Creek on Toy Gragson Farm. Anyone in Temperance Hall area should be able to tell you where it is at. If you have full names of others then I can look them up in DeKalb County Cemetery Book. D. Mitchell Jones http://www.dmitchelljones.org
There is at least one cemetery in DeKalb County TN that I personally know about. In the late 1950s, My cousins and I accidentally "discovered" the cemetery on my Grandmother Trapp's farm. It seems the family knew the cemetery was up on the hill to the east of the house near a fence row. The very old Sparta road wondered up the hill near where the grave yard was located. There were about fifteen or so tombstones standing and evidence of other graves in the same area with no stones. Several years later most of the stones had fallen into the graves or were leaning over. I remember one stone in particular. It was for Elizabeth Shore. The only date on the stone that I remember is 1844. I do not recall if it was a birth or death date. What I remember is that she was 18 at the time of her death.
