Location: Snider & Yorgason in their book Sumner Co. TN Cemetery Records list the location as: 7/10 mile west of Castalian Springs at Bledsoe Pioneer Monument. Cemetery is a few yards west of the monument across a fence (1981).
Note (from Susie Swaney): This cemetery is just to the left of the Bledsoe Cemetery with a fence dividing them. Part of the cemetery is well kept (1964), the rest has grown up in brush and many field stones lying about. No headstones are visible in the unkept part but a rough estimate is that there are at least 30 graves here. Bailey Peyton SWANEY, Sr. is buried in the unkept part, no headstone could be found though.
