Montgomery Cemetery is about 2 miles North East of Washington in Rhea County, Tennessee, on Hwy 302. Beside the road on the North side. Inventoried by Edna Clack and Carol Moyers during 1998 and March of 1999.
At the end of this inventory, I am including the work done by the WPA during the 1930's. There are stones listed in their report that are not readable now. Also, this gives a comparison as to how they read the stone vs how it is read today. `
The present inventory includes nothing but what is on the stone, the WPA sometimes added comments not actually on the stone, such as age in months, days and years.
