There was one cemetery in this article that I felt was unfairly mentioned. That was the cemetery on the grounds of the Nashville Zoo. The Zoo is located on the Croft estate; the Croft sisters willed their property, Grassmere, to Nashville. The zoo has preserved the Croft family home, built in 1810; and I am sure that the family cemetery has been treated with respect. The article provoked visions of a cemetery inside the animal exhibit area, which is not the case as far as I know.
