Here is a partial list of Cemeteries that need attention. They are going to be lost within a few years if we do not get started on saving them.    If you want to volunteer to assist with cemetery preservation contact Bobby Prosser.

Brents Cemetery - [Marshall County] About 1 to 1 1/2 miles east of Talley Station

Brooks Cemetery - [Marshall County] About 1 mile west of the Talley Station Community, on Fishing
Ford Rd.

Cornelius Sullivan Cemetery - [Lincoln County] I am still trying to locate it. I think I know where it is. I
believe that it is in a wooded field north of where the waters of Gimlett Creek start, within the same area of the
Howell Johnston Cemetery.

Greer Cemetery - [Lincoln County] Two 1/2miles E of Petersburg and N of Petersburg-Chestnut ridge Rd. and W of Hannahs Gap Rd.

Harkins Cemetery - [Lincoln County] It is adjoining the King Cemetery.

Howell Johnston Cemetery - [Lincoln County] It is off of Waggoner Hill Rd. west of Booneville, would
like to locate and reclaim.

King Cemetery - [Lincoln County] Located on Petersburg Rd. about 1 to 1 1/2 miles on left as you descend
from The Ridge.

Luna Cemetery - [Marshall County] This is where old Peter Luna is buried a couple miles southwest of the
Talley Station Community on Fishing Ford Rd.
