#85 King Cemetery |

According to Edith, Gene Aldridge from Colonial Pipeline took some pictures of the James Moore King Cemetery on Mooreland Lane in Murfreesboro. (at the end of Moore's Lane and about 600 feet west of Overall Creek) This cemetery was destroyed by vandals, and was cemented over and the stones restored in 1954. Edith sent me these pictures with permission to put them online. |
