The Wilkerson Cemetery
The Wilkerson Cemetery is located behind the barn before you get to the house at
#47 Tisdale Lane off Bradford Hill Road. The two story log house that is standing
there is the original house built by Revolutionary Soldier Turner Lee Wilkerson in
1816. A descendant still owns and lives in this house today. There are thought to be
40-50 burials in this cemetery but only two are marked. Several fieldstones are visible
