CLOVER CREEK BAPTIST CHURCH CEMETERY

            The Clover Creek Baptist Church Cemetery is located in Medon on Highway 18. The church moved here from a previous location in Hardeman County, just south of the Madison County line. The cemetery is well cared for. There appear to be about six unmarked graves.

            David Donahue recorded Clover Creek Baptist Cemetery August 24, 2004. The cemetery had been recorded previously in 1989. This record appears in Cemetery Records of Madison County, Tennessee, Volume I The Southern Half of County (Mid-West Tennessee Genealogical Society, 1995, pp. 44-46) and is referred to as the 1989 record in notes below.
