Long Cemetery
Marion Co. ,TN
Long Cemetery is located in Mullins Cove, Marion Co., Tennesse, on the banks of the Tennessee River.
This cemetery is very overgrown and the woods have just about taken over what is left of the graves that can be seen.
There are only 6 graves that we could read from the old cemetery.

possibly be the grave of ROBERT SMITH.
