    1. [TNWARREN] Old Philadelphia Cemetery
    2. Fred Smoot
    3. Greetings, I am trying to exactly place Warren County's cemeteries. The first problem one on my list is Old Philadelphia Cemetery (also called Vervilla). I believe that the image (URL below) is that of Old Philadelphia taken from the air. http://www.tngenweb.org/warren/cemeteries/old-philly.jpg I have been there however finding it from air is a different story. Is the image of Old Philadelphia? Fred Smoot In CA -- The closer you look, the farther you see. (Cavagnaro's Axiom)

    3. Fred, No offense, but I can't see a cemetery at all. Where exactly in the picture are you looking at? Air shots are sooo different. I have been to Old Phil. many many times and it doesn't look real familiar. Can you magnify the area you are looking at maybe? Sheila PS Vervilla is the town. Also in Vervilla, right down the road from Old Phil. is Bascom Cemetery. Alot of my relatives are buried there. -----Original Message----- From: Fred Smoot [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, November 04, 2002 8:21 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [TNWARREN] Old Philadelphia Cemetery Greetings, I am trying to exactly place Warren County's cemeteries.

Still, that is the way we look at maps. I reckon that the loop road could be a circular drive around the cemetery, but my view from California is not too sharp. <g> This the best enlargement that I can get from this website: http://terraserver.homeadvisor.msn.com/ I noticed today that the site has an option for topo maps too. Here is another website that has topo maps: http://www.topozone.com/ Fred Smoot
