Jacob Brown Cemetery
2003<\/p><\/div>\n

In the Lamar Community, turn off State Highway 81onto Taylor Bridge Road. Travel 8\/10th of a mile. Turn left through a gate at the barn. Go around the barn and bear right through a gate. Continue up the hill to the top. It is between Cherokee Creek and the Nolichuckey River. The cemetery has a chain link fence around it.\u00a0 There are at least 15 fieldstones marking graves and several with no markers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks to Dave Denis for his work cleaning off this cemetery.<\/p>\n
