TARPLEY CEMETERY (Owl Hollow Road at base of Hwy 64 bypass) GILES COUNTY, TENNESSEE

Mapping the Location

Area Views of the cemetery. There are none. I made most of these photos as I climbed back up the 200 foot bank of the road and none came thru picturing the cemetery. The brush is too dense for photos: 5599/5600/5601/5602/the tombstone buried in dense brush:5596

TARPLEY, William J., 5 Feb 1822 - 2 Dec 1915. (Inscription on east side of monument) 5597
TARPLEY, Mary N., 22 Jan 1832 - 10 Jan 1911. (Inscription on east side of monument) 5597
TARPLEY, Bettie, 16 Mar 1899 - 22 Aug 1899 (not found in this survey but given the density of the brush it is to be expected)
TARPLEY, Myrtle T., 3 Apr 1876 - 27 Nov 1877. (Inscription on west side of monument) 5595

Unknown part of a tombstone in dense vines at the foot of the main monument: 5598
