Thanks for visiting this page. If you have any additional information about this, or any other, cemetery in the Smokies, please let me know.
Always Nice to see others documenting these cemeteries. So many of the old grave markers are fading or breaking. One day these pictures will be the only thing left to remember them.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Its sad to think they'll be gone someday. So beautiful and such a feeling of peace and history in each one.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I read your blogs all the time... :)
