I found a book, "The Dale Hollow Lake Graves" by Gary D. Norris. In it he refers to three instances of Arney graves being moved. Reference #1: "The Arney Cemetery was on Tract D-501-A in Clay County. All of the 100 graves were unknowns and they were moved to St. John Cemetery." Reference #2: "Arney #1 This cemetery is given this name by the Corp of Engineers eventhough there is another Arney Cemetery. This Arney Cemetery was found in Clay County on Tract G-507. There were 63 unknowns and 8 knowns for a total of 71 graves at this site. All 71 graves were moved to the St. John Cemetery in the same county." Reference #3: "Arney #2 This small cemetery of 3 total graves was found in Clay County on Tract G-507. All 3 unknown graves were moved to St. John Cemetery." Page 26 Since Gary Norris wrote his book well after the graves were actually moved, could there possibly be some other place that would have documentation of who may have been buried in those graves? Meaning other Arney family records, etc. Didn't anyone keep records of who was buried where back then? Afterall, Mr. Norris did not mention where these cemeteries were, he did not mention whether they were on current or former Arney land, etc. I'm looking for Peter Arney's grave (died in 1845 in Overton County, TN) and Matthew Arney, Sr. grave (died in 1902 in Overton County, TN). I found Matthew Arney Sr.'s son's grave, William Ervin Arney (who would have been Peter Arney's grandson) who died in 1887. If anyone has any information that may shed some light on this, I would deeply appreciate it. Thank you for your time, consideration, and cooperation, I deeply appreciate it.
