JACKSON-SHARPTOP
CEMETERY

From Gary Matthews take Highway 48/13 South 2.6 miles to Highway 149. Turn right, go 6.6 miles to 10 miles. Palmyra Road, turn left, go .7 mile to Sharptop Road. Turn right go 1/2 mile to Jackson Cemetery Road, turn left.

We try to keep families grouped together. If someone's last name is listed, it means they have a separate headstone. If it is not listed, they are sharing a headstone with someone else. Sometimes children are on the same headstone as parents.

Since we do not personally know these families, if we aren't sure of a relationship we list who they are buried next to. Any help matching folks with their relatives will be greatly appreciated.
The information is exactly as it appears on the stones. If you know the person's full name, please let us know.
