The cemetery has as many as 50 \u2013 100 unmarked graves and many graves marked by fieldstones.  Several stones are in need of repair.  \r\n<\/p><p>\r\n*Note*  In 1958, Charles M. Bennett transcribed this cemetery and found several stones that we were unable to locate in 2004.  Many of the stones are now very worn and many are now missing.  Using his transcription, we were able to determine the inscriptions on a few now almost completely illegible stones.  <\/p><\/p><p>Burial records: <a \n\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.tngenweb.org\/cemeteries\/index.html#!cm=1326493\" target=\"_blank\">343<\/a><\/p><p>Recorder: Surveyed and photographed 13 May 2004 by Betty Jane Hylton, Donna Briggs and Bob Shell<\/p><p>USGS Map: Bluff City<\/p><p>GPS Location: 36.481213, -82.365417<\/p><p>Elevation: 1424 ft.<\/p><p>Searchable burial information, an interactive map  and additional information on this cemetery\n\t\tcan be found by visiting the cemetery database <a \n\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.tngenweb.org\/cemeteries\/index.html#!cm=1326493\" target=\"_blank\">click here<\/a><\/p><div class=\"cem_sum_pic\"><p><a href=\"http:\/\/tngenwebcem.s3.amazonaws.com\/sullivan\/1326493_Miuddy Creek Cemetery.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/tngenwebcem.s3.amazonaws.com\/sullivan\/1326493_Miuddy Creek Cemetery.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p><p><a href=\"http:\/\/tngenwebcem.s3.amazonaws.com\/sullivan\/1326493_Muddy Creek Cemetery (19).jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/tngenwebcem.s3.amazonaws.com\/sullivan\/1326493_Muddy Creek Cemetery (19).jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p><p><a href=\"http:\/\/tngenwebcem.s3.amazonaws.com\/sullivan\/1326493_Muddy Creek Cemetery (22).jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/tngenwebcem.s3.amazonaws.com\/sullivan\/1326493_Muddy Creek Cemetery (22).jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/tngenweb.org\/sullivan\/muddy-creek-missionary-baptist-church-cemetery\/\"><span class=\"more-msg\">Continue reading &rarr;<\/span><\/a>","protected":false},"author":70,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7291","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cemeteries"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tngenweb.org\/sullivan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7291","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tngenweb.org\/sullivan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tngenweb.org\/sullivan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tngenweb.org\/sullivan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/70"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tngenweb.org\/sullivan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7291"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/tngenweb.org\/sullivan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7291\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7422,"href":"https:\/\/tngenweb.org\/sullivan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7291\/revisions\/7422"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tngenweb.org\/sullivan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7291"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tngenweb.org\/sullivan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7291"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tngenweb.org\/sullivan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7291"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
