Rhea Cemetery
The Rhea Cemetery (also spelled “Rhee”) is located in the field beside 1154 Island Road in the Blountville area of Sullivan County. The cemetery is VERY overgrown and many stones were actually buried underground. There were eight fieldstones marking graves. There may have been more, but we were unable to find them due to the brush and briars.
