Picture of Tennessee Cemetery

The Tennessee Cemetery is located in the northwest portion of Morgan Township. From Princeton, go west on highway 136 two miles to route P. North on route P four miles to the gravel road to the right (east). Go east on gravel one mile to "T" in road and turn right. Cemetery is approximately 200 south on east (left) side of the road. An old church stands across the road, but has not been used for quite some time. Although the cemetery is well maintained, there are indications and indentations that literally dozens of graves are now unmarked, but the stones that remain are mostly in good condition. This survey was conducted by Phil & Kathi Stewart on Apr 9, 2003.
